Down in the 22nd

State Representative Harold Selby announces that he plans to run as an independent for Stoll's old Senate seat.

Does this help or hurt the Republicans trying to beat Johnson?

Two schools of thought: 1. Selby, a Democrat, will draw Democratic votes away from Johnson. 2. Selby is closer to Republican nominee Bill Alter on some issues (pro-life; pro-gun; pro-tort reform) and may draw votes from him.
