Plain Talk: On the midterms and the fight for the NDGOP in North Dakota’s legislative primaries

2

MINOT, N.D. — This year’s primaries, from local legislative races to the national midterms, are in many ways a referendum on the influence of disgraced former President Donald Trump and his movement’s ongoing influence on the GOP.

What did we learn after this week’s primary elections? And the fundraising numbers we’re seeing in North Dakota’s Republican legislative primaries so far?

We talked about it on this episode of Plain Talk. Matt Lewis, a senior columnist for the Daily Beast and host of the Matt Lewis and the News podcast , joined to discuss the national races.

Wednesday co-host Chad Oban and I discussed the more local races, where traditional or “establishment” legislative candidates seem to have an edge.
