OH-18: Zack Space Is Not Complacent

While Republicans still don’t have a clear candidate lined up, Zack Space is not kicking back. Today his campaign announced they have over $1.2 million dollars on hand.

While there’s little doubt his unexpectedly weak challenge from Republican Fred Dailey in ‘08 left a lot of the campaigns funds unspent, they did still raise $321,000 last quarter.

And, in probably an even stronger enforcement of his position, Space recently kicked off Phase 2 (our phase 1 coverage here) of his Renew Ohio 18 project.

To describe these as a series of town halls would be an understatement. The work groups, consisting of local experts and constituents, basically get a major say in Space’s legislative priorities. The way Space goes the extra mile to empower his constituents is a main reason I’m not too worried about this race.
