From Dispatch Politics:
Former Republican House Speaker Jon Husted officially announced his candidacy yesterday for Ohio secretary of state next year with a promise to change the job he’s seeking.
“I may be the first person in Ohio history to run for an office with a plan to eliminate it,” Husted, now a state senator from Kettering, said in announcing his candidacy at Ohio Republican headquarters.
Husted, 41, said he wants a “bipartisan decision-making process leading to nonpartisan outcomes.” He plans to spend the next year developing a model by talking with local elections officials and studying approaches in other states.
