Palin to headline Ohio Right to Life event
Former Republican vice presidential candidate and Alaska governor Sarah Palin is coming to Ohio once again, this time to help Ohio Right to Life raise money.
Palin will give a speech at a $40 per person event Friday, Mar. 5, at the Aladdin Shrine Center at Easton in Columbus. Capacity at the venue is 4,000 people.
She’ll also attend a private reception with a smaller group of big donors, said Ohio Right to Life spokeswoman Elyse Putnam. Ticket prices for the private reception have yet to be set, she said.
“We are paying Sarah for the event but we’re under contract so I can’t discuss that,” Putnam said.

Jeb Bush coming to Mason, Cincinnati for Kasich
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush will be in Mason on Tuesday, Jan. 12, to participate in a small business forum with fellow Republican John Kasich, who’s running for Ohio governor.
According to information from Cox Ohio’s Denise Callahan, the forum will be at 11 a.m. at FANUC Robotics, 7700 Innovation Way in Mason. The forum will focus on topics such as how to keep major employers in Ohio and what barriers must be broken down for businesses to thrive in Ohio, according to Callahan’s information.
Bush also will be the featured attraction on Tuesday morning in Cincinnati at a breakfast fundraiser for the Republican Governors’ Association, according to Kasich’s campaign.
Then Tuesday evening, Bush, brother of former President George W. Bush, will be the big draw at a fundraiser for Kasich, Kasich’s campaign said.
Meanwhile, the Kasich campaign announced that on Jan. 28 it will hold an “88 County House Party for a New Way and a New Day.”
In an e-mail, Kasich told supporters “I will be joining you via the Internet and laying out my thoughts for the race to come.”
