PRIMARY DAY: WHAT TO WATCH FOR — West Virginia and Nebraska hold
primaries today. Like last week’s contests in Ohio, the action is mostly
on the Republican side, and the main drama is about former President
DONALD TRUMP.

WEST VIRGINIA: Two GOP incumbents, Reps. ALEX MOONEY and DAVID
MCKINLEY,  are facing each other in a congressional primary because the
state lost a seat after redistricting.

NEBRASKA: CHARLES HERBSTER, JIM PILLEN and state Sen. BRETT LINDSTROM
are the three top GOP primary candidates running to replace the
term-limited governor, PETE RICKETTS. The national implications of the
race revolve mostly around Trump’s endorsement of Herbster, who has been
accused of sexual assault by eight different women.
