All CU-Backed Candidates Won Races in This Week’s Primaries

WASHINGTON—All 17 credit union-supported candidates won in primary elections this week in Iowa, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, and South Dakota.

America’s Credit Unions reported credit-union backed candidates won primaries for an open seat. Rep. Andy Kim (D-NJ) won his primary in New Jersey to succeed Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ), who has chosen to run for re-election as an independent after being indicted for alleged corruption. Additionally, Montana state auditor, Troy Downing, earned the GOP nomination for Montana’s 2nd District.

More Elections Next Week

The next round of primaries takes place June 11, with credit unions backing 15 candidates in four states – Maine, Nevada, North Dakota, and South Carolina, according to the association, which said credit union-supported candidates are winning at a 98% rate so far in the 2024 elections cycle.
