US Senate Primary Election 5/4/10: The Democratic Candidates

Unless someone else files in the next six days, the competitors for the Democratic nomination for George Voinovich's seat are set.

The candidates are Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner and Lt. Governor Lee Fisher. Both are fairly well known across the state as they've held office for several years now. Aside from a considerable lead in fundraising for Fisher, there doesn't seem to be a clear advantage for either candidate, especially when paired against the favored GOP candidate Rob Portman.

An interesting fact to note is that while Brunner is FAR behind in money (usually the key indicator in a race) she's still hanging tough. And with just a couple months to go till the primary, it's the Fisher campaign that's shaking things up with a new campaign manager.

This is already a race to watch!
