As Geoffrey just mentioned, the Republican women who voted with Democrats to defeat the near-total abortion ban measure were the only Republican women in the South Carolina Senate. Healy stated earlier this month, "You can’t tell me that’s not a slap in the face of women.” According to the Center for American Women in Politics, South Carolina ranks 47th in terms of female representation in state legislatures.

In other Palmetto State news, state Sen. Katrina Healy has conceded defeat in the runoff for South Carolina's 23rd Senate District. Healy belonged to a group of three women state senators from the GOP who broke with their party to oppose a near-total abortion ban in the state last year. But this made them targets in their party primaries: Two lost renomination in the June 11 primary, while Healy is now headed for defeat in a runoff after no candidate won a majority two weeks ago.

While we're starting to get results in the marquee New York races, let's check in on the issues voters in the state are prioritizing this year. Like voters around the country, New Yorkers are most likely to say that the economy is the most important issue facing the state, according to a May Emerson College/The Hill/PIX 11 survey. Thirty-four percent of New York voters said that the "economy (jobs, inflation, taxes)" was the most important issue, and it topped the list for Democrats, Republicans and independent voters. The exact same share overall (34 percent) also named economy as the top issue in polling just before the 2022 midterms.

Beyond that, though, a lot has changed for the state since 2022. Before the midterms, the second most important issue to New Yorkers was "threats to democracy," named by 14 percent of respondents. That has fallen to just 7 percent in the most recent survey, while the issue of immigration has risen to second place, from 3 percent in 2022 to 16 percent. Housing has also risen in importance; in 2022, 3 percent of New Yorkers named "housing affordability" as the most important issue facing the state, compared to 12 percent now. And abortion has fallen as a key issue; in 2022, 11 percent said "abortion access" was their top issue, while just 3 percent say so today. With the exception of immigration, which has risen in salience across the political spectrum, these changes in priorities are particularly pronounced among Democrats in New York.

Utah may be safely Republican, but the MAGA faction of the party is looking to pick up seats from the traditional Republican faction in Tuesday's primaries. And the biggest prize of all is the state's open U.S. Senate seat, currently held by anti-Trump Sen. Mitt Romney.

The front-runner to replace Romney is Rep. John Curtis, whose temperament — and attitude toward Trump — are closest to Romney's. Although he hasn't taken a high-profile stand against Trump like voting for impeachment, Curtis declined to endorse Trump during this year's presidential primaries and has avoided commenting on Trump's legal issues. Another tell: Though Romney hasn't made an endorsement, much of the incumbent's political operation is behind Curtis, who is known on Capitol Hill for being the rare Republican to talk about climate change and for owning 300 pairs of quirky dress socks.

Curtis faces three opponents who are, to varying degrees, more enthusiastic about Trump. Former state House Speaker Brad Wilson has raised the most money ($2.0 million from donors, $3.0 million from himself), but his efforts to strike a happy medium between moderate and MAGA (he introduced a resolution to pay tribute to Trump shortly after his second impeachment but also blocked an effort to censure Romney for voting to convict; he endorsed Trump for president, but only after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis dropped out) may end up pleasing no one. Meanwhile, businessman Jason Walton has vocally defended Trump and is well funded thanks to a $2.5 million loan to his own campaign, but Trump himself opted to support underfunded Riverton Mayor Trent Staggs instead.

That surprising endorsement may have cost MAGA Republicans their best shot at defeating Curtis. Not only has Curtis raised $3.8 million on his own, but outside groups largely funded by moderate Republican donors have spent a whopping $9.6 million to help him or hurt Staggs. As a result, a [June 4-6 poll from HarrisX/the Deseret News/the University of Utah]) put Curtis at 47 percent support, with Wilson (24 percent), Staggs (21 percent) and Walton (8 percent) well behind.
