Republican Jim Risch won election Wednesday to the U.S. Senate representing Idaho, defeating independent candidate Todd Achilles. Risch, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, was running for a fourth term. He has defended President Donald Trump’s foreign policy objectives and focused on strategic competition with China. Risch was strongly favored to defeat Achilles, a U.S. Army veteran and former state legislator. A Democrat, David Roth, dropped out of the race earlier in the year. The Associated Press declared Risch the winner at 1:31 a.m. EST.
