There Are No Primary Surprises

The results of yesterday’s primary are in and the big news is…things pretty much went as expected: current congresswomen Nydia Velazquez (CD7) and Yvette Clarke (the newly-redistricted CD9) won their respective nominations in not-at-all-close races. In a four-way race, Velazquez got 58% of the vote; Clarke won against Sylvia Kinard, 88% to 12%.
