ALLEN COUNTY, Ind. (WOWO): Allen County Sheriff Ken Fries has announced that he will run for the District 15 Indiana Senate seat. The seat is currently held by Senator Tom Wyss, who announced in September that he would not seek re-election. According to the Journal Gazette, Fries will not be able to run for sheriff again when his term ends next year and has chosen Paula Hughes, former County Council member and mayoral candidate, as his campaign chair. Allen County Councilman Darren Vogt and mayoral candidate Liz Brown are also interested in running on the Republican side. Jack Morris, who ran against Wyss in 2010, will run again.
