A Republican state lawmaker says he wants to be Ohio's next treasurer. Rep. Josh Mandel (R-Lyndhurst) says his experience as a city councilman and a state lawmaker will help him do the job. And Mandel, who's also an Iraqi war veteran, says he plans to use the internet to get his message out to voters. |
