Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-IN) has died in a car crash in Elkhart County, Indiana, along with three other people, according to local media reports.
A car with Walorski and two other passengers was heading southbound on state Route 19 when a car heading northbound veered left and collided with the southbound car, according to a CBS affiliate in South Bend, Indiana.
All four occupants of both vehicles, one of them apparently the congresswoman's communications director, are dead.

Horrible news.
Awful, tragic, news. RIP all.
I just this article as well. Terrible news. I always liked her and she served her constituents well. God bless her, and God take care of her now, she’s in Your capable Hands.
Damn just damn prayers for her family and the families of both of her staff members who were also killed
LORD, have mercy!

If you read the whole report it sounds like 5 were killed in the crash, not 4.
4 in one car and 1 in another car.
Republican.
” northbound car veered left”====Boy do I hate that krap. Case of beer says a dumbass driver just had to answer a cell phone. We lose at least one a week hereabouts to just that thing. Phone rings, looks down, pulls wheel left, and takes out a Kenworth. Tow truck drivers tell me they see this ALL THE TIME. Either in the wreckage or coming right at them on the road. We don’t usually hear about the ones that just wind up in the sagebrush with no truck contact.
Repeat: one a week. The Air Life guys tell me it’s their single most common speed run. If there’s any justice the guy who jerked got his too in this case.
Prayers for her soul and for the comfort of her family.
It really was the Amish this time.
I’m suspicious.
I read it as her and two others in her car, and then assumed the fourth was the driver of the oncoming car. Not getting five in the count.
For those of us without Farcebook, what are her posts?
Horrible. Prayers for Jackie Walorski’s family and also for the families of her two young assistants. Just an awful tragedy...
Yup. Same thing here in CT. Distracted and *wrong way* drivers are killing machines here in the Hartford, CT area lately. It's like an epidemic...
Could have been distraction. Could also have been a medical event, like a stroke. No need for premature speculative judgments.
have the dems come out with banning assault car legislation?
