Shontel Brown wins the Democratic special election primary in Ohio's 11th Congressional District, notching a victory for moderates, CNN projects
Brown's defeat of Nina Turner, the former state senator and close ally of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, is a flexing of the Democratic establishment's muscle, after South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn and the Congressional Black Caucus stepped in to campaign for Brown. Turner conceded to Brown Tuesday night."Tonight my friends, we have looked across the promised land, but for this campaign, on this night, we will not cross the river," Turner said.
"There aren't too many districts like these that can lead the country. And so you all have the responsibility for all of us to help us add one more member to lead that fight.""I need Nina," she said."Please send me Nina. Please." But increasing the might of the party's left flank could come at the cost of other influential Democratic factions.
