Petro reacts
Here's Attorney Jim Petro's initial reaction to today's news that Auditor Betty Montgomery is pulling out of the governor's race. The question now is...what happens if Petro decides he wants to run for re-election as attorney general?
"Betty Montgomery has run an honorable and spirited campaign,'' Petro said. "In all of my public statements, I have always stated my belief that Betty Montgomery has had a very distinguished record as Attorney General and Auditor of State. I have been proud to support her in all of her elections since we first came to know one another in 1988. I am very pleased that she will be the Republican candidate for Attorney General, and I wholeheartedly endorse her candidacy and her election."
This statement indicates Petro's not pulling out of the Republican Party primary against Secretary of State Ken Blackwell. He has until Feb. 16 to decide.
