YouTube Description
as posted by the channelOvernight results from a number of key primary races in the Midwest are being seen as a major test of President Donald Trump’s hold on the Republican base as his party fights to keep control of Congress. In Indiana, a majority of incumbent Republican state senators who faced Trump-backed challengers lost their races.

NBC’s Shaquille Brewster reports for TODAY.
