Former Ohio treasurer Gertrude Donahey, seeking a third term, defended her earnings record while touting public education on the office’s functions. She touted votes surpassing all other state offices and faced challenger George Rogers, who has questioned her age as she campaigns across Ohio.
Donahey, daughter in law of Vic Donahey and widow of John W. Donahey, touts political lineage and finance expertise as she campaigns for state treasurer. She defends investing state funds to maximize interest, claiming over 6 million dollars in earnings with no loss of revenue, while facing Republican critique over federal securities and Ohio banking exposure.
The state treasurer handles large sums from taxes and fees, oversees about $1 billion average balances, and custody for $12 billion across six retirement systems. Investment decisions are made by a three member board, with bids from Ohio banks for active and interim funds, and daily operations centered in Columbus offices. Approximately 135 staff across nine departments support the office.
