Nate Lamar Wins Election
Nate Lamar (A3) ’89 won one of four district seats (three at-large seats are elected in Presidential years) on the Henry County Council (a county legislature in Indiana) with 62% of the vote and won all precincts in the district. He says:
I didn’t realize this until yesterday when I finally crunched all the numbers (a little difficult for us HPA types!), but I’m thankful that I also "led the ticket," garnering the highest percentage of votes of any Republican candidate with major party opposition in my county. The 89 year-old female dairy farmer incumbent finally decided to retire, so this resulted in the open seat for which I ran for a four year term in this rural district.
Congratulations, Nate!
