Tell us: Were you surprised John Deaton won the Mass. U.S. Senate GOP primary?

We want to know what you think about Deaton's primary victory and his chances on Election Day.

John Deaton, a personal injury lawyer with backing from the cryptocurrency industry will go head-to-head with incumbent Elizabeth Warren in the Massachusetts U.S. Senate race this November, after winning the Massachusetts Republican primary on Tuesday.

Deaton, a former U.S. Marine, beat two Republican opponents in the primaries: Quincy City Council President Ian Cain and engineer Robert Antonellis.

The 57-year-old is a newcomer to politics and Massachusetts. Deaton was born in Detroit, Michigan and moved to Swansea, Massachusetts in January to launch his campaign for the Massachusetts Senate. He worked for decades as an attorney on asbestos and mesothelioma cases before turning his attention to crypto litigation and advocacy in the last few years.

Deaton has been a vocal supporter for the cryptocurrency industry, while Warren has been one of Washington’s most vocal advocates for tighter regulations on the industry, according to The Boston Globe.

After Deaton announced his U.S. Senate candidacy in February, we asked Boston.com readers if they think he could beat Warren in November. Of the more than 500 respondents, the majority (57%) said yes, Warren is vulnerable to Deaton in the race. But 39% said no, she is too entrenched in the state’s political fabric to be ousted by the cryptocurrency attorney.

In his speech at his victory party Tuesday night, Deaton said he would have only one test as he decided how to vote in the Senate: “Is it good for Massachusetts and America?”
