From the Associated Press:
Voters were choosing Democratic and Republican nominees for governor and lieutenant governor. They also were choosing nominees in several local races, including for sheriff, county supervisor and, in some places, superintendent of education.
There was only a Republican primary in three statewide races: for state treasurer, auditor and insurance commissioner.
If runoffs are needed, they will be Aug. 25. The general election is Nov. 3.
