Kenneth Blackwell on News and Notes

Republican Gubernatorial candidate Kenneth Blackwell rarely talks to Ohio reporters but he did do a national interview last week. Blackwell spoke on NPR's talk show, News and Notes, which is hosted by an African-American and focuses on issues of interest to the black population. Recent Poll found Blackwell, who is African American, running six points behind Democrat Ted Strickland. But he said his campaign is in better shape than he thought it would be after a tough primary battle. ideastream's Mark Urycki reports.
