snip-"A top official with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is resigning from her post after less than a year to mount a Republican campaign for Congress in a northwest Ohio district that is one of the most competitive in the country."
"Madison Sheahan, 28, announced her campaign for Ohio’s 9th Congressional District on Jan. 15, challenging incumbent Democrat Marcy Kaptur, who won reelection by a narrow margin in 2024. The district includes Toledo and swaths of northwest Ohio."
snip-"Sheahan worked for former South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem — now the secretary of Homeland Security, the department that includes ICE — and then as the secretary of the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries."
snip-"Sheahan joins a crowded Republican primary field that includes state Rep. Josh Williams, former state Rep. Derek Merrin and Air Force veteran Alea Nadeem. They will face off in the GOP primary in May."
