Glenn Donnelson, R-North Ogden, 70, who is seeking a fifth term, is challenged by Ryan D. Wilcox, 30, a former legislative assistant, in Tuesday’s primary election.Although this morning's article focuses mainly on the House District 7 race, there are actually two GOP offices which will be affected by 2008 Weber County primary ballots.
