A foul-mouthed MAGA candidate for Missouri secretary of state might be doing some cursing at herself Tuesday night after finishing outside the top five in the GOP primary-and failing to win even a single county. Valentina Gomez, who littered her campaign with offensive statements about gay and transgender people, used derogatory language towards Vice President Kamala Harris, and called Juneteenth a “ratchet” holiday-all the while espousing her religious views-acquired less than eight percent of the vote, bringing to an end a theatrical campaign that at one point saw her take a flamethrower to a pile of LGBTQ-themed books that she deemed were “indoctrinating” children. That action was one of several that drew condemnation in recent months. “Attention-seeking candidates like this are not great at reading the room: voters have resoundingly rejected book bans and candidates promising to ban books,” Sarah Kate Ellis, the CEO of GLAAD, an LGTBQ advocacy organization, told The Advocate back in February.
