The United States held its biggest primary night of 2022 — by volume, at least — on Tuesday, with voters in seven states nominating candidates for November: California, Iowa, Mississippi, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico and South Dakota.

California’s much-watched results will take longer to come in, as will results in some races. So keep checking back for updates. But here are some early takeaways from the races we know about so far.
1. Voters in blue cities send a message on crime — again

2. Jan. 6 commission suddenly an issue?

3. More incumbent trouble

4. The Trump update

5. Effort to thwart Medicaid expansion fails in S.D.

6. A rare father-son duo in New Jersey
