(KOKOMO) - Jim Buck won has become the next Indiana District 21 state senator, taking a seat held by Jeff Drozda since 2002.
Buck, who has served 14 years in the Indiana House, bested opponents Dave Mueller and Monty Henderson in a Republican caucus at Howard County Republican party headquarters.
Saturday's vote gives Buck at least two years in the state senate, with the District 21 seat not up for election until 2010. Then Buck can expect a primary challenge from Mueller, a Westfield businessman.
Drozda resigned after his employer reassigned him out of state.
