Voters head to the polls today in primaries across Georgia, Alabama, Oklahoma and Washington, DC.
Much of the attention is on Georgia, where Peach State voters are casting their ballots Tuesday in two key Republican primary runoffs: choosing who will face Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff in what will be one of the nation’s most closely watched Senate races in November, and picking a nominee in the governor’s race, where Trump and term-limited Kemp are aligned.
In Washington, DC, mayor Muriel Bowser is not seeking reelection — leaving the city’s overwhelmingly Democratic voters to choose today between seven candidates in a ranked-choice primary to replace her.
There’s also a new test for Trump in Alabama. The Republican primary runoff between Trump-endorsed Rep. Barry Moore and former Navy SEAL Jared Hudson in Alabama’s Senate race is another test of how willing voters in a deep-red state are to follow the president’s lead.
And in Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt, a conservative Republican who at times has criticized Trump, is term-limited, leading to a wide-open primary race to replace him.
