Another Republican Announces Run for Sec'y of State

From the Dayton Business Journal:
Dayton native Colin Beach has announced his candidacy for Ohio Secretary of State.

The Republican graduated from Capital University Law School in Columbus in May and had a kickoff for his campaign Monday morning at the Schuster Performing Arts Center.

Beach joins at least three others from around the state who have tossed their hats into the ring for the position. Some others that have announced their candidacy include Jennifer Brunner, a Democrat from Franklin County, Greg Hartmann, a Republican from Hamilton County, and Jim Trakas, a Republican from Cuyahoga County.

Beach said his goals include an election system overhaul, which would include using an electronic voting system. He also said he looks to decentralize power and redistribute funds from the Secretary of State's office to local boards of election.
Should be a very interesting race to watch...
