Ryan Frazier won the 7th Congressional District with 174 votes, or 49% of 355 cast. Lang Sias made the primary ballot with 154 votes, or 43% of the votes. Mike Sheely got 29 votes and Michael Deming 1. After the vote was announced, Frazier told me that he met his two objectives—make the ballot and win the top line. He said he will use the primary campaign to build support among Republicans and independents for the general election in November. The primary is Aug. 10 and the general election is Nov. 2.   Sias told me that he wasn't surprised that he got 43% of the votes, although he wasn't sure how he would do. He said he had a feeling he would do well after a debate that the candidates had Monday night. After the debate, a straw poll of the some 200 listeners gave him more votes than Frazier got, he said.   Getting 43% of the vote gives Sias credibility with voters and contributors, he said.
