Tennessee voters will decide a heated Republican US Senate primary and other federal and state contests on Thursday. Nearly 600,000 residents have already early voted.

President Donald Trump has thrown his support behind Hagerty, who has contended that Sethi wasn't a good enough advocate for Trump during the 2016 election. Sethi has countered by describing himself as a conservative"outsider" and criticizing Hagerty as a part of the “political establishment.”

On the Democratic side, party leaders facing a tough climb for the seat long held by Republicans have endorsed former Army helicopter pilot and military prosecutor James Mackler over a handful of other candidates. If he wins the primary, it's expected to be a challenge, considering Republicans have held both of Tennessee's Senate seats since 1994.The state is encouraging voters to wear masks and follow social distancing protocols at the polls.

Voters must bring a valid photo ID. Acceptable forms include a Tennessee driver license or photo ID issued by the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, Tennessee state government or the federal government, even if expired. College IDs are not acceptable.Associated Press

U.S. Representative Marshall beats Kobach in Kansas Republican primary for SenateU.S. Representative Roger Marshall won the Kansas Republican primary for the Senate on Tuesday, the New York Times said, defeating arch-conservative Kris Kobach with the help of the party establishment, which feared Kobach would hurt Republican chances in the fall.
