Handicapping The 2018 GOP Field For Governor

The race for Ohio Governor is shaping up, Lieutenant Governor Mary Taylor joined a crowded GOP field on Friday when she announced her candidacy. 

That brings us to a total of eight candidates, four on the republican side and likewise, four democrats.

Four men, and for the first time four women. Three of the candidates, including Taylor, currently hold elected statewide office. 

In a City Club of Cleveland Forum, Taylor was asked by an audience member about her campaign promise to challenge the status quo, when some might perceive her to 'be part' of the status quo as a member of the current administration.
