Merrell, O’Brien leaders in money race
With just under a week until Delaware County voters cast their ballots to decide two county commissioner races, two candidates have opened commanding leads in at least one important metric.

Craig Schweitzer is hoping to replace “politicking” with community values, as he vies for the 67th Ohio House District.

The Delaware County Republican Party’s central committee has endorsed State Rep. Andrew Brenner, Delaware County Commissioner Ken O’Brien and former newspaper publisher and political newcomer Gary Merrell.
In May 2010, Craig Schweitzer came in second to Andrew Brenner in the Republican primary election. Schweitzer, the owner of Columbus business Outdoor Living by Mr. Mulch, hopes to improve on his performance this time around.
Even as the Nov. 8 election still approaches, the Delaware County Republican Party is looking ahead.
