Immigration Revolt: House Majority Leader Eric Cantor Loses Republican Primary

Immigration Revolt: House Majority Leader Eric Cantor Loses Republican Primary: "In a stunning turn of events that Republicans tempted toward compromise will remember for a generation, a tea party challenger defeated one of the top Republican leaders in Congress, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, in the Tuesday Republican primary for Cantor’s Virginia congressional seat.
David Brat rode anger over immigration in particular, and an anti-establishment wave in general, to beat Cantor, who has held his seat for more than a decade and is the second-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives."
