OH-AG: Ohio attorney general candidates (D) push for non-partisan leader in office
The candidates running for Ohio Attorney General are focusing their early campaigns on their legal experience as two Democrats head toward a May primary, and the sole Republican candidate looks to the November general election.
John Kulewicz
Attorney and Upper Arlington City Council member John Kulewicz has the endorsement of the Ohio Democratic Party in the race. He said more than four decades as an attorney have shown him what the office of attorney general needs.
Elliot Forhan
Athens native Elliot Forhan is an attorney living in the Cleveland area, but voters may know him better as a former state legislator. As a legislator from 2023-2024, Forhan said he sought to hold everyone’s feet to the fire, inside and outside of the Ohio Democratic Party. So much so, that he sued legislative members of his party in a defamation lawsuit that is still outstanding as he makes a run for the Attorney General’s Office.
Keith Faber
Current Ohio Auditor of State Keith Faber is unopposed in the Republican primary. Through spokesperson Matt Dole, Faber declined to be interviewed for this story, with Dole saying the campaign planned to “allow the Democratic primary play out before we engage in interview profiles about the race.” Dole told the Capital Journal the campaign “will be very different depending on the outcome.”
