A hotly-contested GOP primary race for a U.S. congressional seat in Indiana was won by a woman who passed away two months ago.

According to the Marion County Coroner’s Office, Jennifer Pace died on March 6.  Through a record request, The Epoch Times learned that Ms. Pace’s cause of death is listed as Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease or what is commonly called hardening of the arteries.

The 60-year-old candidate, who went by the name “Jenn,” listed an Indianapolis address on her Declaration for Candidacy paperwork, stamped as received by the Indiana Secretary of State’s Office on Feb. 2, 2024.
