Ralph Alvarado, a Kentucky state senator, advanced to the general election Tuesday evening to be Rep. Andy Barr’s, R-Ky., potential successor shortly after receiving an endorsement from President Donald Trump<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Alvarado, who has positioned himself as a pro-Trump, America First candidate, strengthens the president\u2019s record of endorsements in a state that\u2019s produced a handful of the administration\u2019s most vocal critics within his party.<\/p>\n

Amid frustrations with Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., Trump praised Alvarado\u2019s alignment in his endorsement message.<\/a><\/p>\n

“A true friend to MAGA, RALPH HAS BEEN WITH US FROM THE VERY BEGINNING!” Trump said in a post to social media on Monday.<\/p>\n

The president noted Alvarado\u2019s efforts to turn out Hispanic voters in 2016 as a member of the National Hispanic Advisory Council for Trump.<\/p>\n

“Dr. Ralph Alvarado has my complete and total endorsement to be the next representative from Kentucky\u2019s 6th congressional District,<\/a>” Trump added.<\/p>\n

Alvarado has a background in healthcare, working as a physician for nearly 30 years, according to his online biography.<\/a> He embarked on a political career in 2014 when he ran for the Kentucky General Assembly, becoming its first Hispanic member.<\/p>\n

In his campaign materials, Alvarado also highlighted his consistent support of the president.<\/p>\n

“In Kentucky, a triple crown is rare,” Alvarado said in a video.<\/a> “But so is a triple-Trump. 2016, 2020 and 2024 \u2014 I stood with President Trump every single time. And in Congress, I\u2019ll stand with him again.”<\/p>\n

Although Alvarado must still win the general election,<\/a> his district has leaned heavily Republican in the past. Its incumbent, Barr, last won reelection in 2024 in a 63% to 37% victory over Democratic challenger Randy Cravens.<\/p>\n

Barr, who has represented Kentucky\u2019s 6th congressional district since 2013, is pursuing a seat in the U.S. Senate to fill the vacancy of outgoing former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.<\/p>\n

McConnell, 84, is retiring.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
