Candidates •
Mike DeWine,
Lieutenant Governor of Ohio (Republican) •
John Glenn, incumbent U.S. Senator (Democratic) • Martha Grevatt, activist and labor unionist (Workers' World)
Campaign DeWine's campaign focused on the need for change and to introduce term limits for senators. If Glenn were to win, it would be his fourth consecutive term as senator, a feat that no Ohio senator had done before. DeWine was also critical of Glenn's campaign debts, mainly from Glenn's 1984 presidential campaign. His campaign used a bunny dressed as an astronaut beating a drum, with an announcer saying, "He just keeps owing and owing and owing", a play on the
Energizer Bunny. Glenn's campaign noted DeWine's
anti-abortion leanings, and that he flip-flopped on his opposition of term limits. Glenn also said that DeWine was a career politician and was just looking for another job in politics.
