Insider is be bringing you real-time election votes tonight for governor races, congressional races, a high-profile GOP primary over a safe Alabama senate seat, and state legislature primaries from Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, and even a few high profile runoffs in Texas.
Here's what we're paying attention to:
The marquee race of the night is between Gov. Brian Kemp and former Sen. David Perdue in what's emerged as a fascinating proxy battle between the establishment GOP and Donald Trump, who has backed Perdue's bid to unseat the governor. The former president has accused Kemp of being disloyal by not backing his election lies in 2020.
Meanwhile, Alabama's ruby-red Senate seat is up for grabs, with a congressman vying against a former Senate chief of staff in a GOP primary for the seat.
And in Texas, incumbent Rep. Henry Cueller is facing a progressive challenger from Jessica Cisneros in a runoff election after their March primary went into overtime.
