COLUMBUS — A challenger to Rep. Jennifer Garrison’s bid for secretary of state could emerge next week, state Democratic Party chairman Chris Redfern said Thursday.

The Marietta Democrat, whose district includes part of Muskingum County, announced her candidacy for the job in August and immediately stepped down as House majority floor leader.

Redfern, speaking at a seminar for reporters, said given the importance of the race, the state party likely will endorse the candidate with the strongest fundraising ability, endorsements and connections.
