After weeks of attacks about their gubernatorial candidate's connections to Wall Street, the Ohio Republican Party is now calling the Democratic governor a hypocrite. Also this week - some rare campaign trouble for Attorney General Richard Cordray. Ohio could save millions of dollars by not sending so many low-risk felony offenders to prison - and doing that only makes them more likely to commit crimes anyway. Those are two conclusions from an independent study unveiled this week at a bipartisan conference on sentencing guidelines, prison overcrowding and other criminal justice issues. Sen. Bill Seitz (R-Cincinnati) and Portage County prosecutor Victor Viglucci react.
Education is always listed as a top priority among those running for office. And it certainly has been for Ohio lawmakers and the governor over the last two decades. While there is a chance at some new federal money with Race To The Top, the state department of education has said it needs $928 million more money to keep going in the next budget. State school superintendent Deborah Delisle talks about K-12 education and the budget.
The 157th Ohio State Fair has started its 12 day run at the fairgrounds in Columbus, after opening ceremonies with General Manager Virgil Strickler. And the fair's opening day was a fairly good one for Ohio's most recent former governor, as the Coliseum at the Fairgrounds is named for former Gov. Bob Taft.
