From Dispatch Politics:
A bit more than nine months before the November election, Ohio Democrats appear ready to make a change in their candidate for secretary of state.
State Democratic Chairman Chris Redfern said yesterday that the party will have an announcement next week regarding its candidate. State Rep. Jennifer Garrison of Marietta has been running for the seat since August.
But sources said that Garrison has drawn strong opposition from the party’s progressive base for her conservative stands on social issues and that leaders, including Gov. Ted Strickland, are prepared to embrace Franklin County Clerk of Courts Maryellen O’Shaughnessy for secretary of state.
