WASHINGTON — More than five months after weighing in on the presidential matchup, Rhode Island voters will choose which candidates will face off in this fall’s U.S. Senate election.

She represents West Warwick, Coventry, and Warwick in the state House, and formerly served as minority leader. She lost the Republican nomination for governor in 2018 to Allan Fung, placing second with 40% of the vote. She now faces Warwick resident Ray McKay in the Senate primary.
Elsewhere in Rhode Island, a few cities are holding mayoral elections, while the rest of Tuesday’s primaries are for General Assembly seats.The Associated Press will provide vote results and declare winners in contested primaries for U.S. Senate, state Senate and state House, as well as mayoral primaries in Cranston, Pawtucket and Woonsocket.Voters registered with a political party may vote only in their own party’s primary.
There are no automatic recounts in Rhode Island, but recounts may be requested depending on the vote margin. For contests with more than 100,000 votes cast, a recount may be requested if the vote margin is less than 0.5 percentage points or fewer than 1,500 votes, whichever is less. For races in which between 20,000 and 100,000 votes are cast, the vote margin must be less than 1 percentage point or fewer than 500 votes.
