OH-15 is a top tier open seat

• Rep. Deborah Pryce decided in August not to seek re-election in the 15th Congressional District and republicans scrambled to find a viable candidate.
• After publicly turning down the offer to run for months, State Senator Steve Stivers has announced he will run.
• Kilroy is proud to have the support and early endorsement of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Red to Blue program, EMILY's List and Ohio AFL-CIO.

Several key factors

• As the Franklin County Commissioner, Mary Jo Kilroy currently represents 87% of the 15th Congressional District.
• In 2006, outspent by $2 million, Kilroy came within only 1,062 votes of winning this district - less than 0.5% of the vote.
• The 15th Congressional District was split 50-50 for George W. Bush and John Kerry in 2004 and continues to trend Democratic.
• Demonstrating her fundraising prowess, Mary Jo Kilroy reported $828,361 in receipts for the 2008 election cycle and $638,086 cash-on-hand through December 31, 2007.
