A mayoral runoff in Jacksonville helped serve as a reality check on Republicans' strength in Florida after big wins in the 2022 midterms. Follow for the latest on Tuesday's major races.
The top billing of the night went to Kentucky, where state Attorney General Daniel Cameron, former United Nations Ambassador Kelly Craft and Agriculture Commissioner Ryan Quarles vied for the chance to take on Beshear, who has remained popular despite his state's red hue.
Craft highlighted her support for Trump and her service in his administration as ambassador in New York while dumping millions of her own money to buoy her campaign. Observers in the state believed that Cameron remained the frontrunner heading into Tuesday but that Craft's millions spent on television advertising hammering Cameron helped make the primary a real race.
The primary was anticipated to be a low turnout affair, with the secretary of state predicting turnout to hover around 10%, inserting an added level of uncertainty into the race. Polling showed a tight race among the five, with large percentages of undecided voters looming. In the end, Parker was projected by The AP to take the primary.
However, potentially due to the stakes of the race or the aftermath of Zabel's scandal, Democrats and Republicans both invested big dollars over the seat. Boyd ultimately defeated Ford, according to an AP projection, helping Democrats keep their wafer-thin majority.
