(The Center Square) — Voters in Connecticut and Vermont went to the polls Tuesday to decide primary races that showcased Democrats’ struggle between moderates and its progressive left wing and demands for generational change in Congress.

In Connecticut's Democratic U.S. House primary, former Hartford Luke Bronin soundly defeated long-time incumbent 28-year veteran U.S. Rep. John Larson in a race that was framed around the need for younger representation in Congress. Larson, 78, was seeking a 15th term in the state's 1st Congressional District.
