Weston Wamp, Coty Wamp win Hamilton County Republican nominations for mayor, DA

UPDATE:

Chattanooga entrepreneur Weston Wamp won the GOP nomination Tuesday to try to become Hamilton County's next mayor.

Wamp, the 35-year-old son of former U.S. Rep. Zach Wamp, R-Chattanooga, would be the youngest mayor in Hamilton County since the job was created nearly a half century if he defeats an even younger Democratic rival, 25-year-old Matt Adams, in the Aug. 4 general election.

Law enforcement attorney Coty Wamp decisively defeated incumbent Neal Pinkston for the Republican nomination for Hamilton County district attorney. Wamp received more than 70% of the vote.
