Voters in six states head to polls with Kentucky’s Massie facing Trump’s fury – US politics live

Voters in six states are heading to the polls, with a particular focus on Kentucky where Representative Thomas Massie is facing opposition encouraged by former President Trump. This election is viewed as a test of Trump's influence within the Republican Party, as he has urged voters to reject Massie, one of the few senior Republicans who has defied him. Separately, police in California are investigating a shooting at a mosque complex as a hate crime after three people were killed by teenage gunmen. The victims were discovered on Monday at the Islamic Center of San Diego, and a center has been established to reunite families affected by the incident.
