Jim Hoops is a Republican politician who formerly served in the Ohio General Assembly. As Henry County Auditor, Hoops opted to succeed Lynn Wachtmann, who was running for the Ohio Senate, and won his seat in 1998.[1] He went on to win reelection in 2000, 2002 and in 2004.[2]
By 2006, Hoops was term limited, and was unable to seek another term in the House. Instead, he opted to run for the Ohio Senate, to again succeed Wachtmann. However, Steve Buehrer, another Republican term-limited Representative, was opting for the seat as well.[3] However, he lost the nomination for the seat, ending his time in the legislature. He has since returned to Napoleon, Ohio and to the private sector.
