Peggy Lehner takes Ohio Senate seat
Republican Peggy Lehner proved she has a sense of humor after being sworn into the Ohio Senate on Tuesday, Nov. 18.
“I promise not to make my speech too long because my term might run out,” Lehner (pictured) said.
Lehner, a former Kettering city councilwoman, will serve through the end of the year to finish the term of Sen. Jeff Jacobson, R-Butler Twp., who resigned to become a public policy consultant.
In January Lehner will move to the Ohio House and current Ohio House Speaker Jon Husted, R-Kettering, will take the 6th District Senate seat.
Husted was elected to the Senate in November when Lehner won an election to the House in the district Husted now represents, the 37th.
