In any other year, the secretary of state’s race would be a snoozer, overshadowed by the often high-profile governor’s race. But it’s not a normal year; 2010 is the beginning of a decade.
That means it’s redistricting time. The next secretary of state will be one of five people who will help draw legislative districts in 2011, which will carry considerable influence over which party controls each chamber of the Ohio General Assembly.
This year, it’s an open race. Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner decided not to seek re-election and instead ran for the U.S. Senate, losing the Democratic primary to Lee Fisher.
