TOLEDO (AP) — Republican state representative Bob Latta has been elected to fill a vacant congressional seat in northwest Ohio.
The Associated Press called the race for Latta just before 9 p.m. With 65 percent of precincts reporting, Latta had 56 percent of the vote, compared to 44 percent for Democratic candidate Robin Weirauch.
Latta will replace the late Paul Gillmor, who died in September from a fall at his Washington apartment. Latta’s father, Delbert, held the conservative and traditionally Republican 5th district seat from 1959 until 1989.
The 51-year-old Latta won the GOP nomination November 6th following a bruising primary campaign with state Senator Steve Buehrer.
Dang! Beat me to it. That article is worthy of it’s own seperate post. Maybe you could put it up?
