Boyce hires new campaign manager
Democrat Kevin Boyce, who is running for state treasurer, switched campaign managers, hiring Bryan Clark to replace Marquez Brown, the campaign announced Monday, July 12.
It will be Clark’s first time managing a statewide candidate’s campaign, though he has worked on statewide ballot initiatives in the past.
Clark worked for environmental non-profits before joining the secretary of state’s office and then was hired as Boyce’s director of community affairs in the treasurer’s office. He took an unpaid leave of absence from that job on July 9 to join the campaign.
Brown returned to his hometown of Cleveland to work on the Ohio Democratic Party’s campaign to elect a statewide ticket of candidates.
Boyce, who was appointed state treasurer by Gov. Ted Strickland, is running against state Rep. Josh Mandel, R-Lyndhust.
In an e-mail sent out Monday, July 12, the Mandel campaign said Brown’s departure as Boyce’s campaign manager indicated that the Boyce campaign is in trouble.
Not so, Clark said. “Treasurer Boyce is poised for victory in November,” he said.
Mandel reported $2.5 million in campaign cash on hand compared with Boyce’s $1 million, according to the most recent campaign finance filings.

Why is this news? Mandel is a child who plays the I am telling first game about nothing that is that important. The fact is that he is trying to divert attention from his extremist right wing agenda. Look Ohio this child Josh Mandel runs with a scary crowd….like Michelle “the USA owes BP an apology” Bachman, Michael “slavery wasn’t that bad” Medved and Karl “let’s fake a war” Rove. Not to mention Jon “Obama lied to Jewish people” Voight. Enough with the nut jobs….I am voting for Boyce!
