Former Mayor Luke Bronin wins Democratic primary in Connecticut, ousting U.S. Rep. John Larson

Democratic Representative John Larson, a 14-term incumbent who has represented central Connecticut since the late 1990s, was ousted in his party's primary on Tuesday. He was defeated by challenger Luke Bronin, the former mayor of Hartford, according to projections and preliminary results from Decision Desk HQ.

With this primary victory, Bronin advances to the November general election to represent Connecticut's 1st Congressional District, marking a major defeat for the long-serving incumbent.
