Well, that wasn't as interesting as we expected. ABC News is reporting that state Rep. Maxine Dexter is projected to win the Democratic primary in Oregon's solidly blue 3rd District. With 45 percent of the expected vote reporting, Dexter leads Jayapal 53 percent to 25 percent. This result prevents some history: Had Jayapal won this race and gone on to win the general election, she and her sister Pramila Jayapal (a representative from Washington state) would've been the first sisters to serve in Congress at the same time while representing different states. In November, Dexter will almost certainly win the general election and succeed retiring Rep. Earl Blumenauer in the Portland-based seat.

We've got a little bit of the vote counted counted in Idaho's 1st District, and GOP Rep. Mike Simpson is in command with 58 percent of the vote, a 25-point lead over challenger Scott Cleveland, per the AP. Simpson beat back a stronger primary opponent last cycle and looks like he'll be back again next year.

ABC News is reporting that state Rep. Janelle Bynum is projected to win the Democratic primary in Oregon's 5th District over attorney Jamie McLeod-Skinner. With 49 percent of the expected vote reporting, Bynum leads 70 percent to 30 percent. This is a win for the DCCC, which backed Bynum in the primary in the hopes that she'd be a stronger bet for the party than McLeod-Skinner, who lost the 2022 general election to Chavez-DeRemer.

Notably, when McLeod-Skinner defeated Schrader in the 2022 Democratic primary here, she did so by holding down Schrader's margins in Clackamas County outside Portland and running up big margins in Deschutes County and the small part of Multnomah in the district. But tonight, Bynum leads by substantial margins in every part of the district.

And that’s that: ABC News reports that Fong is projected to win the special election in California’s 20th District. He’s expected to be sworn into the House soon, giving Johnson a crucial additional Republican vote. Once he is sworn in, the House will stand at 218 Republicans and 213 Democrats, meaning Johnson can afford two Republican defections on party-line votes and still win.

As usual, tonight we'll be tracking candidates in Kentucky, Georgia, Idaho and Oregon House primaries whose campaign websites use the phrase "pro-life," "sanctity of life," "right to life," "protect life," "no abortion," "against abortion" or "unborn" and do not say abortion is an issue of states' rights.

In Kentucky and Idaho, abortion is completely banned with few exceptions, and in Georgia it is banned after six weeks of pregnancy. Of the six congressional seats in Kentucky, five lean Republican and three include at least one anti-abortion Republican on the ballot.

Twelve anti-abortion candidates are running in primaries in 10 of Georgia's 14 districts. Most of those districts are safe seats for one or the other party, though, so abortion is less likely to become a major deciding factor for voters in the fall.

Idaho's 2nd District is the only of its two districts with a competitive primary, and the incumbent, Rep. Mike Simpson, faces two challengers. Simpson and one of those challengers, Sean Higgins, are both on our list of anti-abortion candidates.

Oregon is one of the most protective states for abortion rights in the country, though four Republican primary candidates in the state are on this list today. Two of them are running in the state's only solid-red district, covering much of the non-coastal part of the state. The other two are in the safely Democratic 3rd District and the potentially competitive 4th District.
