Turner tweeted a video of her chanting loudly with supporters, “We gon’ be alright.” She instructed them that was her enduring message to the progressive motion.
Elsewhere, Republican Rep. Warren Davidson turned again a main problem from Hamilton County Commissioner Phil Heimlich, son of the well-known physician recognized for the anti-choking maneuver. Davidson had been endorsed by former President Donald Trump — whose backing helped writer JD Vance win the much-watched GOP main for Ohio’s open Senate seat on Tuesday — whereas Heimlich had criticized the previous president.
Trump’s assist proved priceless in different Home primaries in Ohio as effectively.

The Republican main there was nonetheless too early to name.
In Indiana, former state Sen. Erin Houchin topped eight different Republicans, together with former U.S. Rep. Mike Sodrel, for the celebration’s nomination within the state’s solely open Home seat and will likely be closely favored in November. GOP Rep. Trey Hollingsworth isn’t searching for reelection in his southern Indiana district as he hints at working for governor in 2024.
