Cordray to seek re-election

Democrat Richard Cordray plans to announce on Tuesday, Feb. 16, that he will seek re-election as attorney general.

Cordray first won statewide office in November 2006 when he was elected state treasurer. When Democrat Marc Dann left the attorney general’s office in the wake of a sexual harassment and management scandal in 2008, Cordray ran for and won a chance to serve the remainder of Dann’s term.

Cordray is being challenged by former U.S. Sen. Mike DeWine.

The DeWine campaign recently released a poll showing the Republican leading Cordray by double digits.

Meanwhile, campaign finance reports show DeWine has $1 million in cash on hand compared with Cordray’s $2.6 million.
