GOP Rep. Cori Bush

In the St. Louis area, Rep. Cori Bush is aiming for a third term while facing a significant challenge from St. Louis County Prosecutor Wesley Bell and former state Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal, with the Democratic primary reflecting broader political tensions regarding Bush's stance on Israel. Meanwhile, Rep. Andy Ogles, a member of the House Freedom Caucus, successfully fended off a primary challenge from Courtney Johnston in Tennessee, emphasizing his support from former President Trump and marking a critical win for the Freedom Caucus in a turbulent election cycle. Vice President Kamala Harris's previous campaign positions are resurfacing as the Trump campaign seeks to frame her as a radical liberal ahead of the presidential election, using her past statements against her. In Washington state, several congressional primaries are heating up, notably involving Rep. Dan Newhouse, who voted to impeach Trump, facing Trump-endorsed challengers, and the moderate Rep. Kim Schrier, who is encountering a new progressive candidate. These races highlight the ongoing ideological battles within both major political parties as they approach the 2024 elections.
