It’s not yet November, so elections may not be the first thing on your mind—yet they happened Tuesday evening in a number of primaries and in a special contest in Ohio to replace GOP Rep. Bill Johnson, who retired to become president of Youngstown State University.
Republican Michael Rulli, an Ohio state senator and small business owner who touts himself as a “big natural gas guy,” won that contest, easily defeating Dem Michael Kripchak 55-45 to slightly increase the House GOP majority by one—at least until November, when another election will take place. It looks like Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) just found a little more breathing room:
Congratulations to our newest Republican U.S. House Representative from Ohio’s 6th district, Michael Rulli!
We look forward to Congressman-Elect Rulli providing needed backup for House conservatives fighting for our nation. pic.twitter.com/kXYvgKicbm
