In competitive primary contests, candidates spend millions of dollars trying to separate themselves from their opponents in voters’ minds.
But on rare occasions, a candidate simply doing the right thing can put him over the top of his competition.
Now a jaw-dropping video may show why a key battleground state Republican Senate candidate will win a tough primary.
Blake Master is a young author and businessman who is running an outsider campaign in the GOP Primary for Arizona’s US Senate race.
He’s been surging in the contest as of late – but by simply doing the right thing in a moment that went viral, he may have just separated himself from his opponents once and for all.
An old Black Lives Matter activist – who was also wearing a “Jail Trump” hat, a “fully vaxxed” sticker and an N95 mask – interrupted a Republican event in the Grand Canyon State.
While there, the agitator got into a heated exchange with an elderly conservative woman and the BLM activist got in her face and then hit her in the jaw.
Leftists went nuts on Twitter smearing Masters for supposedly being an elder abuser because the woman-abusing BLM activist was a 73-year-old man.

The corporate-controlled media leapt at the opportunity to paint the picture of Masters as a white supremacist because the man Masters took action against happened to be wearing a BLM shirt.
For example, a Newsweek headline read “Video Shows Senate Candidate Attacking Man in BLM Shirt.”
Of course, the fact is the offender was white.
And Newsweek’s article doesn’t mention that the activist hit the woman in question until the seventh paragraph, but then speculates that the hit may have never happened.
In the video, you can hear a man say to the assailant, “you can’t hit a woman, what’s wrong with you?”
Master also says he saw the attack with his own two eyes.
“This guy hit a woman in the jaw,” Masters tweeted. “I saw it, clear as day. He should not have done that!”

Newsweek also left out the fact that the woke attacker, Peter Jackson, is a convicted sexual abuser.
However, Newsmax’s Benny Johnson found the information in a simple online background search, tweeting “Turns out the leftist activist in this video is a CONVICTED SEX CRIMINAL,” Johnson tweeted. “This sick bastard in the BLM shirt sexually assaulted his own daughter – before assaulting a woman at a Blake Masters event. The media is painting him as some geriatric angel. No, he’s a convicted predator.”

Masters is facing off against Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich, Army veteran and businessman Jim Lamon and General Mick McGuire in the GOP primary in Arizona taking place August 2nd.
Masters surged in the latest poll in the race – jumping up 10-points.
However, Lamon led the poll with 25%, with Brnovich coming in second with 24%, Masters in a close third with 19% and Gen. McGuire trailing behind at just 8%.
Lamon is running in the more establishment-GOP lane in the primary.
Whereas Masters, Brnovich and – to a lesser extent – McGuire are running as America First type candidates.
Masters has since been endorsed by both former President Donald Trump and Donald Trump, Jr.
The winner of the primary will challenge incumbent Democrat Senator Mark Kelly in the General Election this fall.
