OSU abuse survivors blast Jim Jordan's election as House minority leader
Jordan was an assistant wrestling coach at the university from 1986 to 1994 and has been accused in lawsuits of turning a blind eye to a university doctor’s sexual abuse of players.
House Republicans chose Jim Jordan to lead them in the House as the party enters the minority, according to the Los Angeles Times. The newspaper reported that Jordan defeated Steve Scalise in a secret ballot, with 106 votes to 73. The Guardian also reported Jordan’s election, while NPR had earlier reported that Republicans were preparing to select a new leader after their midterm defeat.
