The Elkhart County Sheriff’s Office revealed the cause of death for the car crash in Elkhart County, Indiana, last month that killed Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-IN) and two of her staffers.
The findings from the office concluded that the Toyota RAV4 driven by Walorski staffer Zachery Potts, who was found to be at fault, was driving left of center at excessive speeds when it collided with a Buick in the opposite lane.

Walorski had already won her primary and advanced to the general election for her House seat at the time of her death. After her death, the state GOP chose Rudy Yakym as the replacement candidate for Walorski’s seat.
