COLUMBUS, Ohio—Ex-Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder has cruised to a third term in office despite his arrest on a federal charge that he oversaw the largest bribery scheme in Ohio history, according to unofficial results.
Householder, a Perry County Republican, received more than 70% of the vote (30,740 of the 43,539 ballots cast) in House District 72, according to an unofficial canvass report released Wednesday by Licking County elections officials.
