Senate seat candidate: Michael Shawn McCabe
Michael Shawn McCabe believes it would be easier to seek the Fourth Senate District seat as an incumbent, which is why he wants to be appointed by the Senate Republican Caucus.
With his business background — he was a financial planner and has started McCabe Media — the Butler County Republican Central Committee member said he “saw an opportunity and I’m taking it.”
McCabe said he’d like to focus on educational funding and small businesses.
“I’m very focused on leveraging what 85 percent of what this economy is which is entrepreneurship and the small business owner,” McCabe said, “and trying to figure out a way to focus on those folks.”
If Derickson wins the appointment, McCabe said he’ll seek the 53rd House District seat — other than that, he’ll seek the senate seat. Both are up for election in 2012.
“My goal ultimately is to be in the legislature at the state level,” McCabe said.
