Votes Narrow in Ohio's Tenth District Contest
Lawrence county ballots guarded by the sheriff show results not totaled until Thursday while Gallia's figure remains unsettled. Foster leads in Athens and Vinton with a total of 3 618 and faces possible Jen king margins from Gallia, Lawrence, Meigs and Jackson counties. Jenkins claims a Lawrence County majority. Foster's backers say Jenkins may be weak there. Gallia appears lost to Foster by about 800. County and county ticket results favor Ohlinger and Grosvenor for commissioners, Johnson for treasurer, and Sanda for surveyor with Morgan renominated for court clerk. Both Johnson brothers served overseas as majors and were decorated. Rose renominated to the general assembly. Lax narrowly trails Morgan for court clerkship.
