Well not all the Mayors are Endorsing Yet

From the Beacon Journal

Big-city mayors across Ohio are withholding their endorsements of Democratic gubernatorial candidate Ted Strickland until they see a platform that addresses the issues of cities.

Akron Mayor Don Plusquellic said he wants to know specifically what a Strickland administration would do for cities on issues such as economic development, transportation and jobs before he throws his weight behind the campaign.

``Some of the other (mayors), including myself -- we have been talking about what's the plan for cities and communities? If this is just a continuation of the anti-city movement we've seen out of the Republicans for the last 14 years, how does that impact us?''
