Tonight, voters go to to the polls in party primaries Kentucky and Philadelphia, and for a mayoral runoff in Jacksonville, Florida. Our
guide to the key races can be found here. Polls start to close in the Eastern time zone portion of Kentucky at 6 PM ET, and we'll be bringing you tonight's results as they come in.
Results & Poll Closing Times (all times Eastern):
Tue May 19, 2015 at 5:18 PM PT: We're waiting for an AP call, but WLEX has projected that Matt Bevin will be the GOP nomination in this year's Kentucky gubernatorial race. In Jacksonville, it looks likely that Republican Lenny Curry has narrowly unseated Democratic incumbent Alvin Brown. We're still waiting for our first results from Philadelphia.
Tue May 19, 2015 at 5:20 PM PT: KY-Gov: 81 percent reporting and Bevin's lead over Heiner has widened to 34-29, with Comer at 29 also. Comer may be able to take second place but since there's no runoff, it would only be a moral victory.
Tue May 19, 2015 at 5:27 PM PT: Philadelphia Mayor: Initial results coming in at the Philly elections site.
Tue May 19, 2015 at 5:32 PM PT: KY-Gov: 86 percent in and Bevin leads Comer 34-30, with Heiner now taking third with 29. Given how ugly this got, Comer would probably relish a second place finish even though it gets him nothing electorally.
Tue May 19, 2015 at 5:36 PM PT: Philadelphia Mayor: With about 3 percent in, ex-Councilor Jim Kenney is outpacing state Sen. Anthony Hardy Williams 58-29. Too early to conclude anything, but Kenney appeared to run away with this in the final weeks.
Tue May 19, 2015 at 5:41 PM PT: KY-Gov: Heiner's running mate conceding to Bevin.

Tue May 19, 2015 at 5:44 PM PT: Philadelphia Mayor: 9 percent is in and Kenney is sitting pretty with a 63-22 lead over Williams.
Tue May 19, 2015 at 5:46 PM PT: Jacksonville Mayor: And that is that.
Tue May 19, 2015 at 5:50 PM PT: KY-Gov: 95 percent in and things are still interesting. Bevin leads Comer by a small 33.1-31.8 margin.
