Columbus Mayor Coleman endorses Fisher in U.S. Senate race
Columbus Mayor Michael Coleman on Tuesday, Dec. 1, announced that he has endorsed Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher in the 2010 U.S. Senate race.
Fisher is running against Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner for the Democratic nomination for the Senate seat. The seat is being vacated by Republican U.S. Sen. George Voinovich, who is retiring.
“I have known Lee for many years, and I’ve seen his leadership on key development projects,” Coleman said in a press release. “…Lee will put Ohio jobs and Ohio families first, and no one will work harder to bring new economic growth to our state.”
Coleman was Fisher’s lieutenant governor runningmate in 1998 when Fisher lost the governor’s race to Republican Bob Taft.
