Leonard Glenn Christian (born September 22, 1965) is an American politician of the Republican Party. For nine months in 2014, he was a member of the Washington House of Representatives, representing the 4th Legislative District. Christian was appointed to the state legislature on January 8, 2014, by the Spokane County Board of Commissioners, despite being the second choice of the Republican Precinct Committee Officers from the district.[2] Christian filled the vacancy left after Larry Crouse resigned from his seat in the legislature on December 31, 2013, because of health problems.[3] In 2010, he fell 12.5 points short of unseating the incumbent Spokane County Auditor, Vicky Dalton.[4]
