This week on "The State of Ohio": A twist in the campaign for governor -the GOP goes after the Democratic governor for his Wall Street connections. A new report says the state spends hundreds of millions of dollars locking up low level offenders for sentences that are too short for rehabilitation, but long enough to give them time to learn from experienced criminals. There's a huge budget deficit on the horizon, but the Department of Education has requested nearly a billion dollars more money in the next budget. The state school superintendent explains.
And the 2010 Ohio State Fair is open, and it brings a colossal honor for a former chief executive - all this week in "The State of Ohio".

Ironically, the issue that's brought them together is an issue that's not particularly high on the list of voters' concerns --- the environment. Statehouse correspondent Bill Cohen reports. |
