With the state’s midterm primary election approaching on Sept. 6, Massachusetts Republicans are divided over their choice of who to nominate for the gubernatorial race.

Primary voters will on Tuesday be choosing between former state representative Geoff Diehl, a conservative pro-life Republican who proudly touts the endorsement of Donald Trump, and successful businessman Chris Doughty, a pro-choice Republican and self-prescribed pragmatist, who has made it clear that he does not align with the former president.
