When running for elected office, it is generally best to avoid telling voters that they shouldn’t be asked to vote in the first place. No one explained that to the Democrat running for Ohio attorney general.

Speaking at a local Chamber of Commerce roundtable, Steve Dettelbach told a crowd of about two dozen that he wished he didn’t have to stand for election. In fact, Dettelbach thought the attorney general shouldn’t be elected at all. The governor should appoint the AG instead.
