Hodges Seeks Fifth District GOP Nomination
R Kent Hodges of Ottawa is one of seven Republican hopefuls for the Fifth District seat and the race marks his first run for office. He campaigns on personal contact rather than TV ads, relying on neighborly outreach as he navigates fundraising and welcomes voter engagement across the district. Hodges cites Washington experience and study of past elections to argue fresh appeal may counterbalance a crowded field. He predicts strong turnout could split votes among several strong candidates, benefiting him if the field narrows.
