AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
Donald Trump — and establishment Republicans not named Kevin McCarthy — mostly got what they wanted on Tuesday night.
Elections across five states Tuesday were largely low-turnout affairs, but they’ll help shape the future of Congress. Voters who cast their ballots helped select a new U.S. representative in Ohio, picked battleground contenders whose races could help determine control of Congress in 2025 and settled safe seat grudge matches in a long-running fight over the makeup of the House GOP conference. But there was one constant across the Republican primaries: Trump remains the kingmaker.
