Montgomery claims victory

Ohio Auditor Betty Montgomery won her race for the attorney general nomination, but when she stepped up to the center podium at Jim Petro's party, she gave what sounded almost like a concession speech.

"We've had to choose in a family fight,'' she told fellow Republicans who supported Petro for governor. "But we're now beyond that... At the end of the day, we're Republicans - we have the best candidates.

"Tonight is hard. But at the end of the day, let's not forget what the prize is - to win in the fall.''
