Whose running in the March Primary Election? In short, a lot of people. Here’s your list of the candidates looking for your vote. When possible, we’ve added links to their campaign websites.

With the retirement of congressional representative Dave Hobson and the term limiting out of other current office holders like Kevin DeWine and Steve Austria, many aspiring public servants see the March Primary Election as their best opportunity to advance.
