Strahorn recommended for Ohio Senate
Former Ohio Rep. Fred Strahorn, D-Dayton, earned the nod from the Montgomery County Democratic Party’s executive committee to replace Ohio Senator Tom Roberts, D-Dayton.
The executive committee’s Thursday, March 12, recommendation now goes to the Senate Minority Caucus, which will pick someone to replace Roberts in the 5th District. Roberts stepped down in February to accept an appointment to the Ohio Civil Rights Commission.
The committee also screened Retired U.S. Army Lt. Col. Victor A. Harris and a third candidate, Jason S. Wheatley of Dayton, who asked to be screened even though he does not live in the district.
“Fred has far away more experience in the Statehouse and he would be, on the merits, the better candidate,” said Mark Owens, party chairman.
The Senate Minority Caucus will interview both Strahorn and Harris, according to Mike Rowe, spokesman for Sen. Minority Leader Capri Cafaro, D-Hubbard.
