On Friday, May 1, Kasich, 56, filed paperwork with Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner to set up a governor’s campaign committee.

“This will allow us to build the common sense solutions we need to help Ohio’s hurting families,” Kasich said in an e-mail to supporters. “I look forward to the hard work we have ahead and I hope I can count on you to bring Ohio back.”

Kasich said to “stay tuned” for a formal announcmenent soon and urged visits to www.KasichforOhio.com.

State Sen. Kevin Coughlin, R-Cuyahoga Falls, also is running for governor. On the Democratic side, Gov. Ted Strickland is expected to seek re-election.
