Tiberi gets a challenger
Franklin County Commissioner Paula Brooks this week announced she’ll be running for Congress in 2010, opposing Republican Pat Tiberi in Ohio’s 12th Congressional District, which includes Delaware County and parts of Franklin and Licking counties.
Brooks, a Democrat, has served in public office in Central Ohio for more than three decades, including as a member of the Franklin County Board of Commissioners since 2005. She’s currently president of the Board.
She has also served on the Franklin County Board of Developmental Disabilities, the Ohio State Bar Foundation, Action for Battered Women in Ohio, local Chamber of Commerce, and as an active Rotarian.
Her entry into the race makes hers the second congressional race in central Ohio with the potential to sizzle. In the adjacent 15th Congressional District, Republican Steve Stivers will face off against Mary Jo Kilroy for that seat.
