The primary elections in South Carolina, Georgia, and Oklahoma, focusing on key candidates and their backgrounds.
South Carolina:
The primary is to fill the U.S. Senate seat left vacant by the death of Sen. Lindsey Graham.
Candidates include Darline Graham (Lindsey's sister), endorsed by Donald Trump and Sen. Tim Scott, and Ralph Norman, a current Congressman.
A previous primary didn't yield a winner, leading to this runoff. Polls show a close race, with the winner facing Democrat Annie Andrews in November.
Georgia:
A special runoff is being held to replace Rep. David Scott, who passed away.
The two main candidates are Everton Blair, a former school board chair, and Marcye Scott, the late congressman's daughter, who is favored to win.
Oklahoma:
The runoff includes a race for the Republican gubernatorial candidate between Gentner Drummond (attorney general) and Mike Mazzei (former state senator), with Mazzei holding Trump's endorsement.
There is also a Democratic runoff for a U.S. Senate seat, featuring N’Kiyla Jasmine Thomas (a nurse and activist) and Jim Priest (an attorney and minister).
The primaries feature intense competition, with polls closing at various times throughout the evening. Results will provide clarity on candidates heading into the November elections. The document encourages readers to stay informed on developments.
