Subodh Chandra Update

I first wrote about Subodh Chandra shortly after Paul Hackett was pushed out of the race for Senate, back in mid-February. It was in an interview Paul Hackett did with Ohio 2nd blog that I first heard of Subodh and the fact that he was not getting party support in spite of being highly qualified. Soon after that, I discovered that the Ohio Democratic Party was intent on endorsing candidates even in contested primaries, like the one between Subodh Chandra and Marc Dann for Ohio Attorney General. And I discovered that Paul Hackett certainly knew what he was talking about regarding this lack of support--Dann got the state party endorsement, and only endorsed candidates have their existence acknowledged on the ODP web site.

Anyway, that's a little background as to how the Subodh Chandra graphic link came to live on this site. And, in case you missed it earlier, here's a link to the guest blog Subodh wrote for Howard-Empowered People: Please Help Me Become the People's Lawyer

In spite of the lack of state party support, Subodh Chandra has gotten a number of endorsements from local party groups. And a few days ago, the Cleveland Plain Dealer endorsed him Here's an excerpt:

An attorney general serves as the lawyer of record for the people of Ohio. Chandra, who did an outstanding job as law director under former Mayor Jane Campbell, is well equipped to meet this mandate. He would work diligently to pursue predatory lenders - a primary reason why Ohio leads the nation in home foreclosures. He would also focus on consumer protection, the environment, and wage and safety laws. He vows a drastic reduction in spending on outside legal counsel.

From Ohio 2nd blog:
Voice your support for Subodh Chandra!
In order to get the endorsement of Democracy for America, Subodh needs a strong showing of online support. Please help Subodh by going to http://www.dfalink.com/campaign.php?id=908, clicking on "Voice your Support", and filling in the required information.
