"California Senate Primary: Schiff's Hope for GOP's Garvey in Top Two"

In California's Senate race, Democrat Adam Schiff is facing a challenge from Republican Steve Garvey for the top two spots in the primary, which uses a "jungle primary" system. Schiff and his allies have spent millions to boost Garvey in order to avoid splitting the Democratic vote. If Garvey secures a top two spot with Schiff, it could lead to a consolidation of liberal support in the general election. The race is also contested by progressive Democrats Katie Porter and Barbara Lee, while the risk of low turnout due to a quiet Super Tuesday could impact the outcome.

"Louisiana Republicans Gear Up for Governor's Office Flip: First Test Ahead"

Louisiana Republicans face their first test in their bid to win control of the governor's office, as the state holds a "jungle primary" on Saturday. The primary is likely to narrow the field to a head-to-head runoff next month. The Republican favorite is state Attorney General Jeff Landry, who has the support of the state Republican establishment and former President Donald Trump. Democrats have consolidated around former state Transportation Secretary Shawn Wilson. Louisiana, a predominantly Republican state, has elected a Democratic governor in recent elections, but incumbent Gov. John Bel Edwards is term-limited.
