Jennifer Pace, a deceased Republican candidate, has won the GOP nomination for the U.S. House in Indiana's 7th Congressional District. Despite passing away in March, Pace secured the nomination in a four-way race, consolidating support primarily on the far North side of Indianapolis. She defeated Cat Ping, Philip Davis, and 'Honest Gabe' Whitley. Her unexpected victory, confirmed by APRaceCall at 11:05 a.m. EDT, has sparked discussions about the electoral process and the awareness of voters. Pace will be posthumously challenging the incumbent Democrat, Rep. André Carson, in the upcoming general election.
