It's a rough time to be a Republican. Resignations, criminal charges, and now this:
Rep. Paul Gillmor (R-Ohio), a 10-term congressman from northwest Ohio, has died at the age of 68.
Gillmor, who just returned to Washington after the monthlong recess, did not show up at his office today. His staff went to check in at his apartment and found that he had died. Capitol Police are currently investigating the cause of death.
Initial reports say the cause of death was a heart attack. He was 68 and overweight, so that's not surprising.
This has little bearing on control of the House, where Democrats already have a comfortable margin.
Condolences to his family.
Gillmor, politics, midtopia

His death was due to "blunt head and neck trauma consistent with a fall down the stairs." They've ruled it an accident.
