Primary elections in Indiana and Ohio have highlighted Trump's ongoing influence over Republican voters. In Ohio, Sherrod Brown will face Jon Husted in a crucial Senate race. Husted replaced JD Vance, who left for the White House. Trump ally Vivek Ramaswamy won the gubernatorial nomination in Ohio.
