What happened
Mike DeWine appointed Jon Husted to the U.S. Senate. As Husted campaigns against Sherrod Brown, he addressed the economy, noting that while Ohio has a record number of jobs and the lowest unemployment rate in its history, prices remain too high. Husted specifically mentioned that the average gas price in Ohio is $4.39 a gallon, while consumer sentiment dropped to a near record low in September.
