Six states hold high-stakes primary elections and more top headlines

Campaigns and outside groups backing Massie and his Trump-endorsed challenger, former Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein, have spent nearly $33 million on television ads ahead of Tuesday’s primary.

Cassidy, a physician by trade, had attempted to make nice with Trump after he voted to convict the president in 2021 by supporting the confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Health and Human Services Secretary.

Thomas Massie is facing a formidable challenge from Trump-backed challenger Ed Gallrein in the 4th District, as crowded fields battle on both sides for the Senate nomination.

Six states vote in primaries today, with a mix of safe races, competitive battlegrounds and quieter contests where the real action is downballot.
