Moore wins Republican Primary for right to face off with the Incumbent Democrat.

Ed Moore moves on to November. The Republican on Tuesday defeated John T. Nazars in the primary election. Moore received 791 votes to Nazar's 264.

The 54th District traditionally skews Democratic, and unseating the Incumbent, David Rutledge, will be a more difficult race to win.
