Shiva Ayyadurai may be best known for his dubious claim to have invented email and for filing defamation lawsuits against online publications that debunked his claim. On Tuesday, Ayyadurai added to his list of non-accomplishments when Massachusetts voters denied him the Republican nomination for US Senate.

Attorney Kevin O'Connor beat Ayyadurai by a margin of 60 percent to 40 percent.
