Abortion is particularly relevant in Colorado, where GOP voters are deciding whether to nominate a rare abortion-rights-supporting Republican for U.S. Senate.And in Illinois, a Donald Trump-backed congresswoman ignited a political firestorm over the weekend by celebrating the overturning of Roe v. Wade as <a href="https://apnews.com/article/2022-midterm-elections-abortion-illinois-congress-rodney-davis-b5ea16788dd89de6fe3ef5366fbefb4d" target="_blank">“a victory for white life,”</a> phrasing that her spokesman later called a “stumble” and was meant to be “right to life.”The primaries will also offer new insight about the state of the Republican Party, with the central issue in virtually every GOP contest being fealty to Trump and his baseless conspiracy theories. Those Republicans who have pushed back at all, including a senator in Oklahoma and a congressman in Mississippi, are facing fierce challenges.Democrats have their own challenges. Illinois voters will decide a rare incumbent-on-incumbent primary for a House seat, while in South Carolina, Democrats are picking which candidate will take on South Carolina Republican Sen. Tim Scott this fall.In all, primary elections are playing out across Colorado, Illinois, Mississippi, New York, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Utah on Tuesday. Nebraska is holding a special election.What to watch:COLORADOGOP businessman Joe O’Dea, who has <a href="https://apnews.com/article/abortion-2022-midterm-elections-us-supreme-court-colorado-religion-818d8297a030c58b1d6db7eb1f48555c" target="_blank">spoken publicly about his support for abortion rights</a>, is running for the nomination to take on Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet this fall. O'Dea's top rival is state Rep. Ron Hanks, who opposes abortion in all circumstances and attended the Jan. 6 rally that preceded the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.O'Dea said he backs a ban on late-term abortions and government funding of abortions, but the decision to terminate a pregnancy in the initial months is “between a person and their God.”While Colorado has trended Democratic over the past decade, Tuesday’s top Republican primary contests will show whether far-right candidates are making progress in their quest to take on uncontested Democrats like Bennet, Gov. Jared Polis and Secretary of State Jena Griswold, who’s led the national fight against 2020 election deniers.One of them is Republican Tina Peters, a conspiracy-theorist county elections clerk who’s <a href="https://apnews.com/article/2022-midterm-elections-steve-bannon-voting-donald-trump-elections-445316b2dda05dd21855e009411b3f21" target="_blank">been indicted</a> for tampering with voting equipment and posting data online. Peters wants to unseat Griswold as Colorado’s top elections official despite calls from the state GOP for Peters to suspend her campaign. She's running against Republican Pam Anderson, a former head of the state’s clerks association and defender of Colorado’s mail-in elections system.Colorado’s congressional primaries will measure the staying power of first-term GOP firebrand Rep.

His rivals include Richard Irvin, the first Black mayor of Illinois’ second-largest suburb, who had $50 million in support from billionaire Ken Griffin but was heavily targeted by Democrats who see Bailey as an easier matchup for Pritzker.While Trump endorsed Bailey, he also campaigned alongside first-term Rep. Mary Miller, who is challenging five-term Rep. Rodney Davis in one of the state's two incumbent-on-incumbent primaries.But at Saturday's rally, Miller described the Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade as “a victory for white life.” A spokesperson later said she had intended to say the decision was a victory for a “right to life.”But the Illinois congresswoman is no stranger to provocative statements. Soon after joining the House, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-john-shimkus-illinois-1bed5446a7999232e4be60b692ee7ac6" target="_blank">Miller quoted Adolf Hitler</a>, saying he was right to say that “whoever has the youth has the future.”Davis is a powerful, more moderate lawmaker who is the top Republican on the House Administration Committee, which deals with election legislation and the Capitol complex.Meanwhile, two Democratic incumbents — Reps. Sean Casten and Marie Newman — are facing off for a Chicago-area seat. Also on the Democratic side, about two dozen candidates are fighting to succeed <a href="https://apnews.com/article/religion-chicago-race-and-ethnicity-barack-obama-illinois-6eff3843d9ff1d6899fddbd05a4f0d0a" target="_blank">Rep.
