Lake Bluff's Lesser to run in 58th District

Republican Party leaders have chosen Lake Bluff resident Rick Lesser to be the GOP candidate for the 58th House District seat in the November election.

He'll face Democrat Bob Morgan of Deerfield.

Cindy Masover of Highland Park won the Republican primary for the seat, but she has withdrawn from the race. Incumbent Rep. Scott Drury, a Highwood Democrat, isn't seeking re-election.

The district includes parts of eastern Lake County and small portions of northeastern Cook County.
