Husted reports $2 million on hand for secretary of state race

Sen. Jon Husted, R-Kettering, on Wednesday, Jan. 20, announced that he has more than $2 million on hand in his campaign fund for the secretary of state’s race.

“This is evidence that support for my campaign for Secretary of State continues to grow,” Husted, a former House speaker, said in a press release.

“With every passing day we build new support for the campaign and get closer to the day when new statewide leadership will rebuild a more prosperous Ohio.”

Husted faces Republican primary opposition from former Ashtabula County Auditor Sandra O’Brien. Rep. Jennifer Garrison of Marietta is the Democratic candidate for secretary of state.

Serious reform is needed to bring down the amount needed to run. Eliminating and putting a cap on campaign funding would limit lobbyist and interest groups who are buying their way in. Government needs to come in line with what they are asking citizens to do, but without serious reform backed by total enforcement the maddness will continue.
