Room for One More?

It looks like there will be another Republican on the ballot for the primary for Ohio's 15th congressional district. According to the Dispatch, an Ohio State professor is trying to fill the seat of retiring member of Congress, Deborah Pryce. Here is an excerpt from the Dispatch:

An Ohio State University economics professor with plenty of ideas about changing the nation's system of taxes and social services says he'll make sure Republicans in the 15th Congressional District have a choice in the March 4 primary....
....The 42-year-old West Side resident, who spends most of his time as a portfolio manager, said he will file his petitions Thursday to run against state Sen. Steve Stivers, a Columbus Republican and former bank lobbyist who announced his candidacy last week...

Very interesting.

Did you notice how the article mentioned that Stivers was a former bank lobbyist?
