AINews Summary

Stephen Skoly won the Rhode Island GOP convention endorsement for RI-02, giving him an early edge in the nomination fight. Vic Mellor remains a live contender, and final-week fundraising shows a competitive but still unsettled race ahead of the September 9 primary. Skoly’s convention endorsement likely gives him a visible boost, but Mellor’s continued presence and self-funding keep the race from looking settled. The fundraising numbers add some uncertainty, with Guckian spending heavily late and Pelino conserving cash.
