Democrat David Gill has thrown in the towel in his fight for the 13th Congressional District seat.
Gill refused to concede on Election Nnight, but now says a county-by-county analysis confirms that he cannot make up the nearly 13 hundred vote margin separating him from Republican Rodney Davis.
Gill says he hopes Davis will get a message from the close race and work toward cooperation and compromise on Capitol Hill. Davis thanked Gill for his "passion" during the campaign, but also said he was glad Gill has "foregone dragging this out further."
