Two former Republican U.S. Senators are competing for a U.S. Senate seat in a state primary. They have both sought this seat before with mixed results. A four-term congressman is also facing a challenge in the Democratic primary from a democratic socialist candidate.

Voters will select nominees for various offices, including U.S. House and governor. The outcome of this U.S. Senate race could impact control of the chamber.

Further details about the primary and its potential impact are available, including the context of the national political landscape and the stakes for the parties involved.
