Super Tuesday senate primaries in North Carolina, Alabama and Texas will officially kick off some of the highest-stakes races in the country.
Senate primaries on Super Tuesday in North Carolina, Alabama and Texas could have major implications for which party controls Congress after November.
But a Republican White House isn't the only thing on the line this November. Republican control of the Senate is also up in the air, with the GOP defending 23 Senate seats, while Democrats are defending only 12. An NBC/Marist poll released Sunday showed Cunningham winning support from 51% of likely Democratic primary voters, while Smith got 18%.
Tuesday's primary contest pits former Alabama senator and Trump Attorney General Jeff Sessions against Rep. Bradley Byrne and political newcomer Tommy Tuberville, a former Auburn University football coach. If no one gets a 50% majority on Tuesday, the top two finishers will face off later this month in a runoff.
