Democratic Party

On January 20, 2010, Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner and Lieutenant Governor Lee Fisher—competing to be the Democrats nominee for the US Senate Seat being vacated by Republican George Voinovich—came together at a Candidates Forum hosted by the Hamilton County Democratic Womens Caucus, Hamilton County Democratic Party, and Hamilton County Democratic Forum. This is the first primary event at which Brunner and Fisher have appeared together, and the organizers of the event made great effort to let everyone know that it was not a debate. In this clip, Chase Whiteside of New Left Media interviews Jennifer Brunner about her job as Secretary of State, lessons from Scott Brown’s recent Senate victory in MA, gay rights, and the primary battle. We were unable to secure an interview with Lee Fisher.
