Clark County voters will have another opportunity to meet local and state candidates on Friday.

Candidates for Clark County sheriff, and Ohio house and senate candidates will speak, as well as a representative for the Springfield-Clark Career Technology Center, which has a levy on the March 19 primary ballot. The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. at 7072 Dayton Springfield Road in Enon, which Clark County Republican Party chair Laura Rosenberger said is the party’s new headquarters.

The 10th District encompasses Clark, Greene and Clinton counties.

Former Ohio Rep. Kyle Koehler and Sugarcreek Twp. trustee Carolyn Destefani are the Republicans running to replace Sen. Bob Hackett in the 10th district. Hackett does not live in the newly redrawn 10th district, and his term expires with the general election.

Democrat candidate Daniel McGregor will face the Republican who wins the March 19 primary in November’s general election.

The 71st District comprises part of southern Clark County, and Greene and Clinton counties.

Joshua Day, Bob Fudge, Tyler Scott and Levi Dean are the Republicans running to face off against Democrat James Duffee in November.

The CTC’s permanent improvement levy — which failed last November — would cost $4.08 per month for property valued at $100,000, according to Superintendent Michelle Patrick. It is estimated to generate $4,469,000 annually.
