Democrats to select State House candidate on June 30

The Wood County Democratic Party’s Central Committee will meet Thursday June 30 at 6 p.m., at Newlove Realty on South Main Street in Bowling Green, to select its State House candidate for the November ballot.
Daniel Gordon, a member of city council, and Kelly Wicks, a local businessman who has previously run for the seat, have applied for the nomination.  Both candidates will speak and then the Central Committee will select the Democratic Party’s candidate for the November election.
 According to Michael Zickar, who chairs the county committee: “We believe that this is a historic opportunity for the Wood County Democratic Party, given that there will be no incumbent running and the Republican National Party seems in a disarray after Republicans have chosen Donald Trump as their presumptive nominee for President.”
