Voters in Alaska, Wyoming and Florida are nominating candidates for governor and the U.S. Senate on Tuesday, and a California district will move one step closer to finding a replacement for its disgraced former Congressman.
An early glimpse of a pivotal Senate race, heated primaries on a newly redrawn congressional map, and a special election to replace Eric Swalwell will be in the spotlight on Tuesday.
Senator Dan S. Sullivan and former Representative Mary Peltola are both widely expected to advance in Alaska’s Senate primary, but their vote shares will be closely watched as a reflection of who’s ahead going into the general election.
Representative Rashida Tlaib was supposed to headline an event called “Chomp the Oligarchy” for three candidates for Congress who face Jewish Democrats in Tuesday’s primary.
Representative Rashida Tlaib, Democrat of Michigan, has drawn criticism, and a 2023 censure in Congress, for embracing a pro-Palestinian slogan that many Jews consider a call for the eradication of Israel.
Former Representative Mary Peltola of Alaska did not appear to be happy that former Vice President Kamala Harris put out a fund-raising appeal on her behalf. Ms. Harris lost the 2024 presidential election in Alaska by 14 points.
