Across the political landscape, voters in Georgia, Oklahoma, Alabama, and Washington DC headed to the polls for midterm primary elections. In Georgia’s Republican gubernatorial primary, the early results delivered a potential shock: Trump-endorsed candidate Burt Jones, the state’s lieutenant governor, trailed healthcare executive Rick Jackson by nearly 20 points with the first 20 percent of ballots counted. Jackson has reportedly spent over $100 million on his campaign. Washington DC, meanwhile, is set to elect a new mayor in November for the first time in over a decade.
