4:45Now Playingdemocracynow.org - In a newly drawn district in Ohio, outspoken antiwar Rep. Dennis Kucinich suffered a defeat against Rep. Marcy Kaptur. The two were forced to square off in a Democratic primary after Republicans re-drew Ohio's Congressional map. Kaptur now faces Samuel Wurzelbacher, "Joe the Plumber," winner of the district's Republican primary. Kucinich has said he may establish residency in Washington state, where there is a June filing deadline to run for a new congressional seat in the Seattle area. "I think there would be many people, even in Washington state on the ground, who would be more welcoming to him than most candidates," says reporter John Nichols of The Nation.
