Austria bows out of congressional race




Republican congressman Steve Austria of Beavercreek, who represented residents of Yellow Springs in the 7th Congressional District until the congressional map got chopped up recently, announced on Friday that he will not seek re-election, the Dayton Daily News is reporting. Rather than face popular incumbent Mike Turner or move to another district to run, he decided to save his party a primary.
