Several states held primary elections on Tuesday with Ohio getting the most (negative) attention. TFG endorsed Bernie Moreno, a MAGAt who carries water for the twice impeached, criminally indicted, adjudicated rapist, and one term president, Trump. Moreno bested Sen. Matt Dolan — who was endorsed by Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) — and Secretary of State Frank LaRose (R). He will face Senator Sherrod Brown in the general election.
Please throw a few dollars at Senator Brown’s campaign, if you can, to help keep the Senate in the Democratic Party’s control; preserving democracy depends on it. And if you want to see Gym Jordan kicked to the curb in November, throw a few dollars towards his Democratic challenger, Tamie Wilson.

Other Election Results:
Also on Tuesday, Trump wonthe uncontested Republican primaries in Ohio, Arizona, Illinois, Kansas and Florida. Biden notched wins in those states’ Democratic primaries, except in Florida, where Democrats canceled the primary. About 1 in 5 voters in Florida’s Republican primary, which is closed, cast their ballots for a candidate other than Trump, indicating a lack of interest in the presumptive nominee among some GOP voters in Trump’s home state.
In Illinois’ heavily Democratic 7th Congressional District, longtime Rep. Danny K. Davis (D) was projected to win, defeating challengers including Kina Collins, a community organizer who narrowly lost to Davis in 2022, and Melissa Conyears-Ervin, the city treasurer of Chicago. In the 13th District, Joshua Loyd was projected to win the Republican nomination, beating Thomas Clatterbuck.
In California’s 20th District, Republican Vince Fong advanced to a special runoff election to complete the term of former speaker Kevin McCarthy (R), but the race for the second candidate who will advance to the runoff had not yet been called. Fong is a State Assembly member and McCarthy’s former aide.
