A Possible Republican Candidate for OH-15th???

Is there a possible Republican candidate for Ohio's 15th congressional district? Dayton Daily News:

Former state Rep. Don Mottley won't challenge Kettering City Council Member Peggy Lehner in a Republican primary race for the 37th Ohio House seat.

He's leaving Montgomery County, after living here for a half-century, but is not ruling out running for office — perhaps even the congressional seat being vacated by U.S. Rep. Deborah Pryce, R-Ohio — from his new home in Columbus......

......Mottley said no one is endorsed for Pryce's 15th Congressional District seat.

"No one in authority has asked me to consider that," he said.

Do you think many people in the district have ever heard of this guy? Besides, is that how it works--- you move into a district and then you run for office even though you know nothing about the people, assets, and problems of the district?
