Zach Lahn wins GOP Gubernatorial Primary
At the top of the ticket, five Republican candidates competed for their party’s nomination for governor.

Congressman Randy Feenstra received an endorsement from President Trump last Friday, while Turning Point Action announced its support for businessman Zach Lahn that same day.
In the closest race of the evening, Lahn secured the nomination with 37.7% of the vote, narrowly defeating Feenstra who finished with 36.9%. The remaining candidates finished as follows: Adam Steen (14.5%), Brad Sherman (7.0%), and Eddie Andrews (3.6%) .
