Paul and Kucinich Easily Defeat Primary Challengers: Washington Wire - WSJ.com
Reps. Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich glided to victories in their House races yesterday, despite some tense moments earlier this year when it looked like the two long-shot presidential candidates would lose their seats to primary challengers.
In Ohio, Democrat Kucinich topped his main primary opponent, Cleveland Councilman Joe Cimperman, who similarly defined Kucinich as an absentee congressman with a poor record on major legislation. With more than a third of the vote counted, Kucinich had 52% of the vote while Cimperman collected nearly 33%.
