Yates drops out of Senate race
State Rep. Tyrone Yates, D-Cincinnati, ended his campaign for U.S. Senate, saying he felt he didn’t have enough time to run for Senate and do his job in the Ohio House.
Yates’ departure leaves the Democratic primary a two person race between Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner and Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher.
They are vying for a chance to run in 2010 for the seat now held by U.S. Sen. George Voinovich, who announced he won’t seek re-election.
