Kansas Upheld Abortion Rights And Other Key Updates From The Aug. 2 Elections

We’ve got two calls from ABC News in Arizona’s 6th District. On the Democratic side, former state Sen. Kirsten Engel has won her party’s nomination over state Rep. Daniel Hernandez. On the GOP side, Juan Ciscomani, a former adviser to Gov. Doug Ducey, will be the nominee. It’s an open-seat race in an evenly divided district and will be closely watched in the fall.

Notably, James — a Republican — might be Michigan’s only Black U.S. representative next year. Rep. Brenda Lawrence is retiring, and Indian American state Rep. Shri Thanedar is leading the Democratic primary to replace her in Michigan’s 13th District.

In the Republican primary for Michigan’s 10th Congressional District, the AP reports that John James has dispatched his little-known primary foe, 87 percent to 13 percent. James has become a favorite of national Republicans after overperforming Michigan’s baseline partisanship in both the 2018 and 2020 U.S. Senate races, and now he’s probably favored to go to Congress: Michigan’s 10th District became a Republican-leaning seat in this year’s redistricting process, and our model gives him a 68 in 100 chance of winning.
