President, State Office Primaries In Ohio Tuesday

(Hamilton County, Oh.) - It’s primary election day in Ohio, one of ten states with a primary election on Super Tuesday.

 

Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum, and Ron Paul have been campaigning in the state for the past week-and-a-half as they seek the Republican Party nomination for president. However, Ohio voters have local issues to decide as well.

 

Folks in the western part of Hamilton County are voting for one of two Republican candidates for State Representative District 29.
