Democratic State Representative Allison Tant bested her Republican opponent Spencer Brass in the race for House District 9.

Democratic state Rep. Allison Tant will keep her seat. Tant bested her Republican opponent, Spencer Brass, with about 57% of the vote compared Brass’ nearly 43%. Tant, the incumbent in the race, says her constituents have hired her to do a job and they know from past experience, she’s someone who shows up.

“For me, this is about getting the work done and making sure they know that I’m going to be there every day for them and I’m going to serve with integrity and my whole heart," Tant says. 

Tant serves in district 9, which is made up of much of Leon County, Madison County and parts of Jefferson County.
