Trump-backed pastor drops out of House GOP runoff in Oklahoma

Jackson Lahmeyer, a pastor endorsed by Donald Trump, has withdrawn from the Oklahoma 1st Congressional District House GOP runoff following poor primary results and reports of flirtatious messages with aide Caitlin Simmons Key. Meanwhile, in Alabama, a Republican candidate won a Senate runoff. This victory was supported by a crypto company-backed PAC, which described the financial contribution as its biggest spend of the cycle, as more US states prepare for upcoming June primaries.
