WKYC Channel 3 New’s Tom Beres reported today that Cuyahoga County Commissioner Peter Lawson Jones is looking into running for Senator George Voinovich’s seat in the Senate in 2010. Jones said he is looking at the seat because Voinovich, a Republican, had previously announced that he would not seek re-election in 2010.
Jones, a Democrat, makes the claim that he could build support in Ohio’s large cities, and said that he will decide by early summer.
Here’s the KYC report, which includes this:
Jones is quoted as saying, “Barack Obama showed how this can be done in Illinois and I understand the formula.”
WKYC also states that Lee Fisher and Jennifer Brunner are “listed” as possible candidates. What does that mean, “listed”? By whom? No Tim Ryan, Marcy Kaptur or Zach Space?
Sigh – I need to get out of the horse racing – it’s not for me.
But don’t start betting on me to get out just yet.
