Husted files for secretary of state; faces primary against O’Brien

Sen. Jon Husted, R-Kettering, today, Feb. 17, filed petitions to run for secretary of state, the state’s top elections officer.

Husted, who is endorsed by the Ohio Republican Party, will face former Ashtabula County Auditor Sandra O’Brien for the GOP nomination.

O’Brien, the unsuccessful Republican candidate for state treasurer in 2006, filed her petitions on Tuesday.

Husted said his petitions included nearly 3,000 signatures from voters in more than 60 counties.

“The support we generated from across the state marks another important stepinour campaign’s success,” Husted said in a press release.

The likely Democratic candidate is Maryellen O’Shaughnessy, Franklin County clerk of courts.

The filing deadline for statewide candidates is Thursday.
