Washington: At 23, Indian-American law student Niraj Antani, a Republican, will be one of America’s youngest lawmakers after being elected to the state House in Ohio in the mid-term elections.
Antani defeated 62-year-old Patrick Morris of the Democratic Party in Ohio’s 42nd House District.
“I will work hard and fight every day for my constituents in the Ohio House of Representatives. Together, I know that we can create opportunities so all can achieve their American Dream,” Antani wrote on his Facebook profile.
Antani graduated from Ohio State University in spring last year with a bachelor’s degree in political science.
