What Went Down During The June 28 Primary Elections
With 84 percent of the expected vote in, Aadland is holding onto his lead in the race for Colorado’s 7th District, 48 to 36 percent against Reichert. Republicans hope to flip this blue seat to red, and will face Democratic state Sen. Brittany Pettersen, who ran unopposed in the Democratic primary.
With 33 percent of the expected vote reporting, Eric Sorensen is nearly doubling up Litesa Wallace for the Democratic nomination in Illinois’s 17th District. This is basically the only swing district left in Illinois, with a partisan lean of D+4.

And there it is, the Election Day vote has put the Republican Flood into the lead in the special election for Nebraska’s 1st District. He’s now up by 1 point over Pansing Brooks, the Democrat. It’s unclear how many votes are really outstanding here, considering it’s a low-turnout primary. But the trend is fairly clear.
