South Bend, Indiana, TV station WNDU took a look at the race to fill the vacant Congressional seat left open following the death of Rep. Jackie Walorski. Her district covered Elkhart and the surrounding area, with the late Congresswoman serving as a fierce advocate for the industry.
There will never be another Jackie Walorski, but there will be a next Indiana 2nd District Representative in Congress.
The process of picking a replacement is now something six candidates want to take part in.
Six people have filed the proper paperwork, according to the Indiana Secretary of State’s Office, including former Indiana Attorney General and former Elkhart County Prosecutor Curtis Hill, Jr., who was suspended in a groping scandal in 2018.
Only one of the candidates has been endorsed by Walorski’s husband.
