Harriet Hageman, Wyoming’s current House representative, has won the Republican primary to succeed retiring Senator Cynthia Lummis, NBC News projects. Hageman, who defeated Representative Liz Cheney in 2022, is considered the strong favorite to win the general election in the deeply Republican state, according to the New York Times. The win follows an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, a factor highlighted by both Breitbart and NBC News.
This victory positions Hageman to replace Lummis in the Senate, continuing the state’s streak of Republican representation. No Democratic candidates have emerged as serious contenders. Hageman’s campaign focused on conservative principles and aligning with the state’s political leanings.
While all sources report the outcome, framing differs slightly. Right-leaning Breitbart characterizes the win as a decisive victory, while NBC News and the New York Times emphasize the continuation of Republican control in Wyoming. No sources present conflicting information regarding the result itself.
With the primary concluded, Hageman now turns her attention to the general election, where she is widely expected to secure another Republican win.
