In the midst of a highly anticipated election year, the race for the White House is heating up as candidates vie for the 270 electoral votes needed to secure victory. Three northeastern states and Wisconsin recently held presidential primaries, adding to the momentum of the campaign season. Meanwhile, North Dakota Democrats conducted an extended party-run primary, while voters in Louisiana prepared to cast their ballots in the state's presidential primary.
As the nation gears up for the 2024 elections, all eyes are on the Senate races, with control of the chamber hanging in the balance. With 34 Senate seats up for grabs, the outcome of these races will have a significant impact on the future of the country. The marquee race in Ohio, where the Republican primary for Senate is underway, promises to be a closely watched contest.
In addition to the presidential and statewide primaries, there are special elections taking place across the country. These races will not only shape the composition of state legislatures but also have implications for national politics. Democrats in Alabama, for example, are hoping to flip a competitive legislative district in a bid to gain more influence in the state.
