Summary
Stephen Lynch has defeated a younger, more progressive primary challenger, NBC News projects, in the highest-profile test remaining for House incumbents after a turbulent primary season. Lynch, 71, won renomination over Patrick Roath, a 39-year-old former aide to former Massachusetts Gov. That support helped Roath press Lynch for months in one of the toughest fights of his political career. But Lynch persevered, trumpeting work that he says held the Trump administration accountable and leaning on his decades of experience, including deep relationships with unions and other fixtures in the district.
