Ed Gallrein Defeats Thomas Massie In Kentucky GOP Primary

Some primaries happening around the country on Tuesday night, and there were some key wins for Trump-endorsed candidates.

The biggest race on the table was for Kentucky's 4th Congressional District, between Ed Gallrein and incumbent Thomas Massie, who has become a vocal critic of President Trump. Gallrein defeated Massie in the primary race, with Massie officially conceding on Tuesday night.

That seat had been held by Massie since 2012.

Elsewhere in Kentucky, another Trump-endorsed candidate Andy Barr won the Republican primary for the Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Mitch McConnell.
