speaker. at home we re watching a major test of former president trump s influence over the republican party. in the five states where voters are headed to the polls today to vote in primary elections, all eyes will be on the slate of candidates who the former president endorsed and have embraced the big lie that the 2020 election was stolen. will that message resonate with republican primary voters? today will also be a big test for these three house republicans who were among the ten who voted to impeach the former president. will they survive after taking a critical stand? one of today s biggest tests will happen in kansas where abortion rights are on the ballot for the first time since the supreme court overturned roe v. wade. we ll have the latest into the massive implications of that vote. let s get right into it with nbc s steve kornacki at the big board. steve, what are you looking for this morning? a couple things, jose, you touched on. i think this referendum in
