Ohio's senior senator is done at the end of next year. George Voinovich moved to the Senate in 1998, after serving eight years as Ohio's governor. Before that, as the Republican mayor of a Democratic city, Voinovich brought Cleveland back from the edge of bankruptcy. A fiscal conservative, Voinovich also has been seen as a party maverick, frequently voting with Democrats on tax cuts and other issues. For Ohio Public Radio, WKSU's Karen Schaefer has more. |
