BREAKING: Space, Taylor Explore Campaigns

Auditor Mary Taylor (Republican) and Congressman Zack Space (Democrat) are actively exploring Senate campaigns, Gossip CBUS has learned. Last week, Senator George Voinovich announced his retirement. To date, Rob Portman is the only announced candidate.

While neither Taylor nor Space has formed an expletory committee, both have sought assessments of their prospects. Space has, according to sources to close to him, discussed prospective campaign managers and personnel. Taylor has yet to speak with potential staff.

In 2006, Space defeated state senator Joy Padgett, to replace now imprisoned Congressman Bob Ney. In the same election, Taylor defeated Barbara Sykes, to become Ohio’s 31st Auditor.
