Choosing Ohio's next governor, picking the replacement for retiring US Senator George Voinovich, deciding who will fill two US congressional seats and a hotly-contested Hamilton County Commission seat, and allowing or rejecting slot machines at racetracks are just some of the tasks local voters face this year.

Our Guests include: Assistant Director for Xavier University's Institute for Politics and Public Life, Dr. Gene Beaupre, UC Professor and Co-Director of the Institute for Policy Research, Dr. Eric Rademacher and Cincinnati Enquirer Political Reporter Howard Wilkinson.
