“I appreciate the central committee’s diligent efforts in working to fill this vacancy,” Governor Little said. “Representative Stevenson’s passing has affected all of us at the Capitol, and she will be missed. I want to wish Aaron the best of luck as he begins his term in the Idaho Legislature, and I know he will represent the people of District 6 well.”
