That includes State Treasurer Josh Mandel -- a man who is normally thought to be one of the more conservative members of the party. Mandel says he thinks Borges should get the job.

Mandel signed on to a letter last month supporting Borges with other statewide office holders, including Republican Gov. John Kasich.
