As expected after Bob Bennett was unable to force Bob Ney out of his re-election bid, Jim Petro will announce today that he has chosen Joy Padgett, who would not run against Ney, as his running mate in the Governor's race.
According to internal GOP polling, Petro is currently down by 10 points to Ken Blackwell in the primary race, and although I think most of the late undecided voter will break for Petro, I don't know if enough of them will actually show up at the polls to get Petro over the top. Blackwell's voters seem more motivated to vote at this point.
The bottom line is that if it is a large turnout by primary standards, Petro wins. A smaller than average turnout would give the election to Blackwell.
