Trump-backed candidates win majority of Republican primary races for Indiana Senate

A majority of Republican Indiana state senators whose opponents were endorsed by President Donald Trump have lost. The victories by Trump-backed challengers on Tuesday hand the president wins in a deep red state just four months after lawmakers rejected his redistricting plan. The election was the latest to test the limits of Trump’s influence with voters ahead of the midterm. Trump targeted seven state senators who defied months of White House pressure by voting in December against mid-decade redistricting. Trump undertook the national campaign to redraw congressional maps to boost his party’s chances in the November midterm elections.
