zimmerman-chosen-to-fill-frye-s-vacancy-in-house-district-67
Indiana Republican Party Chairman Kyle Hupfer congratulated J. Alex Zimmerman on his victory in the caucus to fill the vacancy in the office of State Representative for District 67.
The caucus was held Monday at the Ripley County Courthouse Annex.
"Hoosiers in the district will be well represented by Alex, and we look forward to him joining the rest of the Republican caucus in the statehouse to deliver results for his constituents and the state of Indiana," said Hupfer.
The vacancy in the office of Indiana State Representative for District 67 was left by State Rep. Randy Frye, whose resignation was effective on July 8. Frye cited health reasons for his stepping down. He was first elected to the Indiana General Assembly in 2010 and served as chair of the House Veterans Affairs and Public Safety Committee.
Zimmerman was chosen over Decatur County Councilperson Deanna Burkart, Jefferson County Councilperson Pamela Crozier and former House District 66 Representative Lisa Seng Shadday of Jefferson County.
Zimmerman is a former legislator and North Vernon attorney. He served for nearly six years in the Statehouse before entering private practice. He worked for the Republican majority in the Senate in a variety of roles including majority legal associate and deputy majority attorney.
House District 67 covers Jennings, Jefferson and Ripley counties and extends into southern Decatur County to the towns of Millhousen and Westport.
