Graham candidate for Congress race
Butler, Pennsylvania – (special)
Attorney John C. Graham today announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Congress at the April 25 primary.
Mr. Graham has sought election to Congress several times, the last two years ago when he polled Butler County over Congressman Louis E. Graham, but lost the nomination in the results from the other two counties in the district, Beaver and Lawrence.
Mr. Graham said his candidacy gives Butler County a chance “to have a representative in Congress for the first time in 20 years.”
