The results are in from Tuesday's primary and Representative Tom Stevenson will not be the Republican candidate for his office in the November general elections. Mark Harris, a 21 y.o. college student, successfully defeated Rep. Stevenson and will face Matt Smith in the fall.
It looks as though the "middle-of-the-night" pay raise has come back to haunt Tom as well as other candidates around the state. He's one of many incumbents that have lost their offices in the primary election. It's actually refreshing to see people so motivated by an issue that they come out and vote. I just wish that it wouldn't take something like this to get people to come out. Everyone should appreciate and take advantage of the freedom we have to elect our political officials.

'bout time that Stevenson is out. That man was completely useless for ten solid years.
Yes, Laurie,that may be true. Now it's time to learn what there really is to the remaining candidates BEYOND the pay raise issue.
umm harris probably won't win because theres mroe support for the democratic candidate and mark is a newbie.
