Ohio governor's race gets IFA attention.

The International Franchise Association arranged a "Meet and Greet" breakfast in August for Ohio gubernatorial candidate Ken Blackwell, right, who is completing his second term as Secretary of State. Blackwell joined members of the Ohio franchising community at the law offices of Benesch Friedlander Coplan Aronoff in Columbus and shared his views on key issues including tax reform. Attendees included, from left, Adam Viers of Cardinal Health, Scott Redwine of Skyline Chili, Kevin Lundy of Wendy's and Nate Filler of Cardinal Health. The candidate previously served as mayor of Cincinnati and Ohio State Treasurer.
