Letter to the Editor
Columbus Dispatch
April 4, 2014

claims about how bad the energy-efficiency targets are that the Ohio legislature enacted in 2008. Most of his claims were

2014 is an important election year. In Ohio, we will be electing a (we hope) new Governor and Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State, State Auditor and Attorney General. In addition, Congressional Representatives are being elected and replacing Steve Stivers with Scott Wharton is a priority.  Finally, we have county offices like Franklin County Commissioner and Franklin County Auditor and local judgeships.
