Thomas Massie loses KY primary election to Ed Gallrein, CNN projects

Ed Gallrein will defeat incumbent Rep. Thomas Massie in the Republican primary in Kentucky’s 4th Congressional District, CNN’s Decision Desk projects.

The district is solidly Republican but the race was a test of President Donald Trump’s control of his party. Massie has drawn the ire of Trump and has broken with Republicans frequently during the president’s second term. As a result, Gallrein, a farmer and former Navy SEAL, was recruited into the race by Trump and his allies. He went into the race with the president’s endorsement.
