Ind. Courts - Carmel City Judge defeats longtime Hamilton County prosecutor

Chris Sikich reports in the Indianapolis Star:
A Carmel city judge in his second year in office defeated the longtime county prosecutor in the Republican primary for Hamilton County Circuit Court judge. In a race closely watched by county Republicans, Paul Felix, 38, won the GOP nomination for the general election against Sonia Leerkamp, 60, with about 56 percent of the vote. * * * Leerkamp, who will not seek re-election after her prosecutor term ends in 2010, said she's disappointed Republican party leaders backed Felix.
