Welcome to another Primary Day!

Polls are closing in Georgia, which is holding Republican primary runoffs for governor and U.S. Senate. The outcome of the Senate runoff will determine which Republican challenges Senator Jon Ossoff, a Democrat, in one of the most closely watched Senate races in the country.

Alabama is also holding a Republican primary runoff for the Senate, a contest that will test President Trump’s influence as voters weigh the significance of a Trump endorsement against a desire to elevate political insurgents.

Oklahoma is holding primary contests for positions including governor and a U.S. Senate seat.

Follow along below with all of our live coverage, and I’ll be back tomorrow with some thoughts on what tonight taught us. Thanks for reading!
