Trump-backed incumbent loses primary after super PAC bankrolled by Dems meddled in race

In a primary challenge, Rep. Andy Ogles was defeated by Charlie Hatcher, whose candidacy served as a microcosm of larger forces within the Republican Party. The race attracted attention due to Super PAC spending and Ogles' opposition to renewable energy investments made under the Biden Administration. A review found that the super PAC is bankrolled by Chris Larsen, who has previously contributed to Kamala Harris's failed presidential campaign.
