Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS) has lost his primary against challenger Dr. Roger Marshall, multiple sources are reporting. Huelskamp has represented Kansas' first district since 2011 and is the first GOP incumbent to lose a primary election without being redistricted.

On Twitter, many people have pointed out that Huelskamp was a fervent Ted Cruz supporter and refused to back Donald Trump--suggesting that perhaps this was the reason he did not win on Tuesday.
