Past Campaigns:

This is Daniel Hutchison's first run for public office.

He defeated John Cusack by only 12 votes in a primary in June. Cusack conceded rather than requesting a recount, citing health problems.

The Gloucester County Republican Party kicked Hutchison off the coveted first line of the primary ballot after it was reported that his firm had made a donation to the Democratic Party after announcing his candidacy as a Republican. He said he was paying for a lawyer who works for him to attend a dinner.
