Summertime Speculation

Well here it is three months from the primary. Local politicians are still circling awaiting an opportunity to run for the 14th Congressional seat should Speaker Haster retire after the general election. Names that have been mentioned are Senator Chris Lauzen, Representative Tom Cross, Representative Tim Schmitz and even Jim Oberweis. Others may enter the race after considering the strength and numbers involved in the race. Since no one appears to have heard otherwise, the Speaker will remain our Congressman and all this is simply speculation.
