What to watch for in Ohio's special election primaries
CNN
A pair of special election primaries in Ohio on Tuesday will put the spotlight on tough questions facing both parties ahead of next year's midterm elections.
In the state's heavily Democratic 11th Congressional District, centered in Cleveland, voters are poised to choose between a progressive champion with close ties to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and a moderate county party leader backed by the national establishment. Down in the GOP-leaning 15th Congressional District, Republicans are looking at a possible replay of last week's special election in Texas, where former President Donald Trump's endorsement wasn't enough to sway the race to his chosen candidate. Trump is, once again, facing a test of his influence -- especially with suburban voters -- and questions over his decision to wade into the race at all.More Related News
