What Went Down During Ohio’s And Indiana’s Primary Elections

I think you brought this up earlier, Alex, but it’s interesting with Miller to see someone coming straight out of Trumpworld into a campaign of their own. Obviously that’s happened with previous presidential campaign staff, but with Trump it seems especially noteworthy because it’s essentially carrying his mantle forward. I wonder how many more of these candidacies we’ll see.

In Indiana’s 9th District, state Sen. Erin Houchin is maintaining her lead of 11 points over former Rep. Mike Sodrel. Veteran Stu Barnes-Israel is further back. There’s still about 20 percent of the vote still out, but it’s looking pretty good for Houchin, whose best areas like Harrison County still have a lot more vote to report.

In the GOP primary in Ohio’s 7th District, Republican Max Miller is projected to win, according to ABC News. Keep in mind, the district is an R+14 seat so Miller is definitely in good standing heading into November, too.
