Democratic Candidate for State Representative in District 79 Chris Wilson has dropped out of the race after accepting a job offer out of the area. Wilson has been out of the running for some time, although he forgot to take his name of the ballot. His absence leaves Republican Candidate Guy Vander Linden unopposed in that election. Democratic Party Chair Anita Martin says she hasn’t run into a case of a candidate forgetting to take his name off the ballot before. She says that it’s up to a candidate to take their name off the ballot if they will not be running.
