Ohio Senate: Ganley Opposes Portman for GOP Nomination
Tom Ganley, an automobile dealer from northeastern Ohio, has kicked off a campaign for the Republican nomination to succeed George V. Voinovich in the Senate.
In formally announcing his campaign for the seat of the retiring Voinovich, Ganley is signaling that he is undeterred by the GOP establishment’s support of Rob Portman, a former U.S. House member from the Cincinnati area who later served as a top budget and trade official in the administration of President George W. Bush.
Ganley’s announcement, which he made in his suburban Cleveland hometown of Brecksville, wasn’t a surprise. In March he filed a statement of candidacy and statement of organization.
