On the Republican side, Stein was one of four to seek the GOP nomination, besting Kathryn Frombaugh and two others with 34% of the vote to take the nomination.[3]
Facing Democrat Tom Dunlap, a Huron County Commissioner, Stein won the general election 62% to 38%.[4] He was sworn in on January 3, 2017.[5]
