AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Governor’s Race Upset: Former CVS executive Helena Foulkes defeated incumbent Gov. Dan McKee in Rhode Island’s Democratic primary, a rare loss for a sitting governor, with the Washington Bridge closure and repair delays driving voter anger. Providence Mayoral Primary: State Rep. David Morales projected to beat Mayor Brett Smiley, pitching a more aggressive housing agenda and winning progressive momentum in a citywide Democratic contest. Lieutenant Governor Nomination: Sabina Matos won the Democratic nomination for lieutenant governor, setting up the next phase of the statewide ticket. Statehouse Seat Change: Nicole Jellinek won the Democratic primary for the vacant District 67 state representative seat, advancing to face an independent in November. U.S. Senate: Sen. Jack Reed secured the Democratic nomination for a sixth term, fending off two challengers. Local Notes: Watch Hill’s waterfront home sold for $3.52M; and the Maddie Potts Jamboree continued at Chariho, supporting the Potts family’s nonprofit work.
