Attorney General Mike DeWine has answered a question that has been asked of him many times in recent months. DeWine says he鈥檚 running for governor in 2018.
DeWine says he intends to run but says he doesn鈥檛 really want to talk about it right now.鈥淚t certainly is no secret that I鈥檓 very much interested in running for Governor in 2018 but I think it鈥檚 just too early to be making that formal announcement," saidDeWine. "We need to get this election behind us and people, I think, should be focusing on this election. It鈥檚 very, very important.鈥�
Other statewide office holders who might run for office then include Secretary of State Jon Husted and Lt. Governor Mary Taylor though neither of them have talked about their intentions at this point. The Ohio Democratic Party鈥檚 Kirstin Alvanatakis says DeWine needs to drop the campaign talk and focus on doing his job right now.
