What Went Down During The June 28 Primary Elections
In Utah’s GOP primary for Senate, the AP has projected that Sen. Mike Lee has won renomination. Still, he has 57 percent of the vote with 55 percent of the expected vote reporting, with the comparably moderate challengers — former state Rep. Becky Edwards and businesswoman Ally Isom — taking 43 percent so far. That’s interesting because in theory some of Lee’s opposition in the GOP primary might break for independent challenger Evan McMullin in the general election. McMullin won the endorsement of the Utah Democrats to set up a mostly head-to-head race in Utah.
We have yet to get a projection, but Davis has conceded to Miller in Illinois’s 15th District. Davis is the third incumbent to go down to defeat tonight; meanwhile, the MAGA wing solidifies its hold on the GOP (Trump endorsed Miller).
