Kingsport Times-News reports Gary Hicks will complete the term of former state Rep. Mike Harrison, who resigned earlier this month. Hicks, a longtime Hawkins County commissioner, won the vote of the county commission on Monday. That seat comes up for election next year in the Aug. 4 state primary and the Nov. 1 state general election. The county commission is required to fill the seat vacated by Hicks within 120 days of it becoming vacant.
