Ridgeway handily wins re-election

Posted
With 23 precincts of 26 counted, Rep. Robert Ridgeway has easily won his second term in the state House of Representatives. He had garnered roughly 75 percent of the vote as of 11 p.m. Tuesday night to Republican challenger Robert McFadden's 25 percent. Three precincts had trouble with machines closing at the precinct location and were still being counted at 11 p.m., but their totals wouldn't affect the outcome of the House race.
