(Reuters) – Idaho Governor Brad Little defeated Republican gubernatorial primary challenger Janice McGeachin, the state’s No. 2 elected official who was endorsed by former President Donald Trump, Edison Research projected on Tuesday.

Little will likely face educator Stephen Heidt, a Democrat, and independent anti-government activist Ammon Bundy in the Nov. 8 general election.
