US Senator John McCain (73) easily won the race in an Arizona primary on Tuesday, fending off a challenge seen as a test of the country’s anti-incumbent mood as Americans decide in November who controls Congress.



The four-term senator and defeated Republican presidential nominee was well ahead of congressman and conservative talk radio JD Hayworth when he gave his victory speech.

But his rival – who was backed by the conservative Tea Party movement – waged a serious enough campaign to force the once moderate McCain to beat a hasty path to the right.
