AINews Summary

Rhode Island Republicans endorsed Dr. Stephen Skoly for the 2nd District nomination at their state convention. The vote was contested, but delegates backed Skoly by an informal 41-19 count. He still faces Victor Mellor in the GOP primary. The endorsement likely strengthens Skoly’s position in the nomination race, but the primary is still contested. It may modestly narrow uncertainty rather than settle the market.
