set up an epic fall battle to succeed John Kasich. There are also primary races for US Senate and Pat Tiberi s old congressional seat. Democrats hope and Republicans fear 2018 will be a wave election to sweep the party in power out of office. Turnout figures from the May 8th primary should provide a leading indicator for the size of the wave. Voters Have Lots to Choose in May Primary April political mailings bring May flowers, especially if you compost. You likely will get many political flyers in your mailbox this spring as central Ohio voters have many issues to decide. Of course, the big decision for Republicans and Democrats is whom do they want to run for governor. Republicans have two candidates to choose from Mike DeWine and Mary Taylor. Democrats have four primary foes Richard Cordray, Dennis Kucinich, Bill O Neill and Joe Schiavoni. The primary will But voters will not only decide who will run their government, but how that government will run. Ohio voters will decide whether to approve a plan that changes the way lawmakers draw congressional districts. It s complicated, but supporters say it will go a long way toward limiting gerrymandered uncompetitive congressional races. Columbus city voters will decide whether to change City Council into more of a district based representative system. Again, it s complicated, but supporters say it will make City Council more responsive to struggling neighborhoods. While these issues are complicated and candidates positions nuanced, the WOSU News Team will break them down for you on 89.7 NPR News, All Sides with Ann Fisher, Columbus on the Record, and wosu.org. Now get those flyers to your compost bin. 89.7 NPR News schedule 5am 6am 7am 8am 9am 10am 11am 12pm 1pm 2pm 3pm 4pm 5pm 6pm 7pm 8pm 9pm 10pm + Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Morning Edition BBC NewsHour All Sides with Ann Fisher Fresh Air Travel w/ Rick Steves All Sides Weekend BBC World Service Columbus on the Record Marketplace Weekend Weekend Edition Wait Wait Don t Tell Me!
