Les primaires de l'Iowa lancent des élections de mi-mandat compétitives

Les électeurs de l'Iowa se rendent aux urnes mardi pour des élections primaires qui prépareront le terrain pour les scrutins d'automne, déterminants pour le contrôle du Congrès et le poste de gouverneur de l'État.

Les élections de mardi incluent trois courses compétitives à la Chambre des représentants, une course au Sénat et une course ouverte au poste de gouverneur qui, selon les analystes, pourrait faire basculer le contrôle partisan. Les deux partis considèrent ces résultats comme cruciaux pour leurs perspectives nationales en novembre.
