Ohio's Unconventional Governor's Race

"Ohio's race for governor is a journey through the looking glass," the AP concludes. "The Democrat, Rep. Ted Strickland, is a rural, pro-gun minister, which could make him appealing to some Republicans. The Republican, Ohio Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell, is a black man who could draw votes from Democrats. In this topsy-turvy political world, none of the usual assumptions hold, and even experienced prognosticators from both parties are hedging their bets."

"The GOP wants to extend its nearly 16-year hold on the governor's office in Ohio, while the Democrats have their hopes up because of Republican scandals in Washington and in Ohio, where a coin dealer and major GOP donor is accused of making illegal contributions and embezzling from a state investment in rare coins."
