Steve Kraus wants his House seat back
Ex-state Rep claims he's best prepared to replace Swearingen
SANDUSKY — With state Representative D.J. Swearingen stepping aside from the 89th House District race to pursue a new post, former state Rep. Steve Kraus is launching a pitch to county Republican Central Committee members to appoint him back to his old seat.
While Kraus argues he is the “safe choice” with unmatched name recognition, his memo conspicuously leaves out the very events that cut his legislative career short—and the fact that voters in the 89th District previously rejected his comeback bid.
