HeadlineJun 29, 2022

Voters went to the polls for primaries in Colorado, Illinois, Maryland, New York, Oklahoma and Utah on Tuesday. Runoff elections were also held in Mississippi and South Carolina. In New York, Governor Kathy Hochul won the Democratic primary, with New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams placing second. In Illinois, the Trump-backed Republican Congressmember Mary Miller defeated fellow incumbent Rodney Davis. Miller’s election comes just days after she praised the Supreme Court’s ruling overturning Roe as a “victory for white life.”
