Posted originally on CTH on August 18, 2026 | sundance
Florida, Wyoming and Alaska all hold primary elections today with most of the interest focused on a few races in each state.
For the Florida Republican primary for Governor, candidate Byron Donalds easily wins the GOP contest. Donalds will now face Democrat David Jolly in the general election.

Alexander S. Vindman, the legend in his own mind and retired Army lieutenant colonel who operated as a false witness to help the CIA manufacture President Trump’s first impeachment trial, lost to DSA Communist State Representative Angie Nixon for Florida’s Democratic nomination for Senate. Nixon will now face Republican Ashley Moody in the general election.

WYOMING – In Wyoming, Representative Harriet M. Hageman, also running with President Trump’s endorsement, is likely to win the Republican Senate primary to replace Cynthia Lummis, who is retiring.
ALASKA – In the state that likes to play games with their elections, Alaska Senator Dan S. Sullivan, a Republican, faces former Democrat Representative Mary Peltola in one of the most closely watched Senate races of the midterms. A crowd of candidates including another inserted candidate, Dan J. Sullivan, are trying to split the votes with name games. The top four vote-winners will advance in this hot mess of a system.
