Fisher gets new campaign manager for U.S. Senate race
Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher is getting a new campaign manager for his U.S. Senate race, John Collins, campaign spokesman, announced on Wednesday, Feb. 3.
Geri Prado, who had been a top political adviser in Sen. Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign before joining Fisher’s campaign, is out.
Jay Howser, who has worked most recently with Democratic Sens. Chris Dodd of Connecticut and Mary Landrieu of Louisiana is in as campaign manager, the campaign said.
Collins described Prado’s departure as “amicable” and a “mutual” decision.
“Geri Prado worked tirelessly over the past 10 months to help us put this operation together and Lee is enormously appreciative of her leadership,” Collins said in a prepared statement.
“Jay Howser comes to us as one of the most experienced campaign managers in the country, and we are excited to grow our operation.”
Fisher is running against Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner for the Democratic nomination in the U.S. Senate race.
Former U.S. Rep. Rob Portman from the Cincinnati-area and Cleveland-area car dealer Tom Ganley are seeking the Republican nomination.

Olivia Freeman began campaigning for US Congress in the 7th District on November 4th. I am running because people are excited to have a viable alternative to the ho-hum, limited access, business as usual of the past. People say, “She is one of us.” I am a mom, not a politician. I pump my own gas, and buy my own groceries, just like they do. My strategies are simple, my plans direct and my principles are sound. I call it the Freeman Pact because I feel people need a personal connection with their representatives. In the past I have been there for people in this district on a personal level, helping them find access to education, jobs and continue to do so. I put a wealth of resources on a website due out on Valentine’s Day called Channel Z. The people can get a copy of the Pact and information about Channel Z from my website: oliviaforcongress.com. Somewhere I remember reading that the founding fathers asked common people to come down from their plow and serve. So here I am.
