Jon Husted brought his campaign for governor to Putnam County Wednesday. WLIO-TV reports the Ohio Secretary of State met with supporters in Kalida. Husted told some personal stories and talked about reducing government spending. He says he’s lowered spending in his office by 16 percent over the years.

Husted is running in a crowded field in the Republican Primary. Attorney General Mike DeWine, Lt. Governor Mary Taylor, and U.S. Representative Jim Renacci are also running for the Republican nomination.
