A recent poll shows Katie Porter leading the California governor's race among Democrats, with 21% support, boosted by her visibility and support from white and Asian voters, especially in a crowded field lacking Kamala Harris's influence.

Rhode Island and Utah are holding special primary elections for US House seats. In Rhode Island, a crowded Democratic field is vying to succeed Democrat David Cicilline in the state's 1st Congressional District.

Both seats are not expected to change party hands in November, so the outcome of the primaries will be critical in determining the next members of Congress.
