Ohio Sen-27: Hanna (D) to Announce Candidacy

We are told that Akron professor and election reform activist Judy Hanna will announce her candidacy for the 27th District Ohio Senate seat now held by Kevin Coughlin (R-Cuyahoga Falls). She has taught at the University of Akron, has been an election reform field supervisor for Common Cause, and was a 2004 election recount observer. She will join Kevin Griffith and Joshua Franchetti in the Democratic primary.

None of them have a chance. Coughlin romps.

Agreed. The Senate Republican Caucus only has two races on which to focus- this one and SD 3 held by David Goodman- and a lot of money with which to defend them.

In all likelihood, SD 13 will be "given" away to Democrats as it is deemed "too expensive" for Republicans to keep, especially since no strong candidate has shown interest.
