Maryland, West Virginia and Nebraska primaries 2024: Alsobrooks beats Trone

As results start to stream in across the state, the map for the Democratic primary for Maryland Senate looks great for Trone. Unfortunately for him, the vote totals are showing a much closer race, with Alsobrooks currently ahead by around 3 points, thanks to a strong showing in Baltimore and a significant lead in her home county, Prince George’s County. As more votes are reported, we’ll be keeping an eye on whether Alsobrooks can maintain her small lead, and if it starts to be reflected geographically.

Another primary challenge to a sitting Republican representative has fallen short. ABC News reports that Bacon is projected to win the Republican primary in Nebraska’s 2nd District. With 37 percent of the expected vote in, he is defeating Frei, his right-wing challenger, 70 percent to 30 percent.

ABC News is reporting that Miller is projected to win the GOP primary against her challenger, Evans. She has 64 percent of the vote with a little more than a third of the expected vote reporting.

Miller has stood by Trump and even voted to overturn the 2020 election results, but that didn't stop Evans from calling her a "commie RINO." The primary was more evidence that state Republican Parties have been tearing themselves apart over issues like loyalty to Trump and the 2020 election results, even as there are only small differences between candidates.

ABC News reports that Riley Moore, the state treasurer, will win the GOP nomination in West Virginia's 2nd District. He'll be a shoo-in for the general election this fall and will take his seat alongside his aunt, Shelley Moore Capito, who is set to be the state's senior senator at the beginning of next Congress.
