Brunner defeated Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher after collecting 28 of 53 possible votes from the local democrats Thursday. Both were in attendance at Thursday's executive committee's endorsement session at Simpson Park. More than 75 people, including several students, watched the candidates make their cases for endorsement.
The candidate winning May's primary will get the official endorsement and backing of the Ohio Democratic Party. The next U.S. Senator from Ohio will replace incumbent Republican Sen. George Voinovich after his 12-year Senate career.
