Primaries and ruboffs in AL, GA, ME, and OK, for Senate and/or Governor
This week's elections are all about "runoffs."
Alabama and Georgia both held runoffs for the top-two vote-getters from earlier primaries.
Oklahoma held its primary and set up for an August 25 runoff for the top-two Republican vote-getters.
Maine held its primary and avoided a runoff election by its "Ranked Choice Voting" RCV system, where the voters' second-ranked candidate gets awarded the vote of candidates below the top-two vote-getters.
The second-ranked counting takes a while -- the results were reported on June 18 from the primary on June 9-- it's called an "instant runoff" becaue that's a lot more "instant" than a runoff a month or two later!
Primaries in ME, NV, ND, and SC, for Senate and/or Governor

Massachusetts Legislative voting records for 2025-2026
The Mass Scorecard compares how Massachusetts legislators voted,
in comparison with issues in the 2025 Massachusetts Democratic Party platform (we score Republicans and Independents too!).
We then score each legislator by how many votes agree with the platform,
on the usual scale of an "A" for 90% or more, down to an "F" for 60% or lower.
Progressive Democrat groups worked with OnTheissues.org in the early 2000s to produce the
first Mass Scorecard; we repeat that for the 2025-2026 legislative session.
