Helena Foulkes to beat Dan McKee in primary
Helena Buonanno Foulkes is projected to win the Democratic primary for Rhode Island governor, defeating incumbent Daniel J. McKee. This marks the first primary loss for a Rhode Island governor in 32 years and the first for an incumbent nationwide in 12 years. Foulkes, a former CVS executive, criticized McKee over the Washington Street Bridge closure and handled the opioid crisis at CVS, while McKee faced criticism for the bridge’s failure and response to its closure. The primary victory sets the stage for the general election, with Foulkes challenging McKee's tenure and leadership.
