Ohio Voters See Apathy Ahead of May Primary
Ohio election officials report voter apathy as the May 2 primary nears with an expected 750000 of three million eligible voters casting ballots. About 400000 Republicans and 350000 Democrats are anticipated to vote amid shrinking campaign events compared with prior years. A Columbus meeting drew 900 to hear Mayor James Rhodes attack the state Welfare Department over inflated soap chemical purchases under investigation. The attorney general race remains competitive with C William ONeill, Dale Stump, and Harry T Marshall contending. Stump forms committees to close the gap and gain backing from Ohio organizations and educational groups.
