Majority of Indiana Republicans Who Rejected Trump’s Redistricting Bid Lose Primaries
This post was originally published on this site.
INDIANAPOLIS—Several Republican state senators who opposed a redistricting plan backed by President Donald Trump lost primary election challenges on May 5 to candidates endorsed by the president.
Two others won their primaries over Trump-back challengers.
Twenty-one GOP senators had voted against the redistricting plan, some citing lack of support for it in their districts and suspicion of Washington-based insiders meddling in state politics.
Trump endorsed challengers in seven races where those senators faced primary opposition.
In Indiana’s congressional races, incumbents fared better. Six easily overcame primary challengers as three others ran unopposed.
This is breaking and will be updated.
