Venture capitalist Blake Masters , who won the Republican nomination for Arizonas U.S. Senate race with Donald Trump s endorsement, has since removed language from his website that supported the former presidents lie that the 2020 election was stolen from him.

According to CNNs KFile , Masters has modified wording on his site that supported Trumps election claims, argued the country would be better off if Trump was still president, and claimed Democrats are trying to import a new electorate rhetoric that matches a white supremacist conspiracy theory.

Those views were on Masters website on Aug. 1, the day before he clinched the GOP primary. Theyve since disappeared.

One section that was edited initially read: We need to get serious about election integrity. The 2020 election was a rotten mess if we had had a free and fair election, President Trump would be sitting in the Oval Office today and America would be so much better off.

Now, it says: We need to get serious about election integrity.

Masters, who is bankrolled by tech billionaire Peter Thiel, struggled to gain momentum in the earlier leg of his campaign but picked up speed after receiving Trumps endorsement. Trump praised him at the time for supporting his crusade to delegitimize the 2020 vote.
