  "summary": "In Tennessee, Republican Rep. Andy Ogles lost his primary to Charlie Hatcher, a former state agriculture commissioner. According to CBS News, with over 80% of votes counted, Ogles trailed Hatcher by just over six points. Hatcher was endorsed by outgoing Gov. Bill Lee and former Gov. Bill Haslam.\n\nOgles had been endorsed by President Trump, but this loss marks the second time this week that a Trump-endorsed candidate has lost a primary, following a loss in Michigan. POLITICO reports that Hatcher won after outraising Ogles and receiving a flood of outside money from a renewable energy super PAC.\n\nHatcher will face the Democratic mayor of Columbia, Tennessee, Chaz Mold, in the general election. In his victory speech, Hatcher said Ogles had called him to concede and offered to help him transition into the job.",
