The former director of the Ohio Department of Health confirmed her consideration for the race on Tuesday at the Ohio delegate breakfast during the Democratic National Convention, making her the first to announce her consideration from the state’s Democratic Party. “I’m considering it,” Dr. Acton said. “Right now, we’re focused on Sherrod Brown and the Supreme Court candidates. I’m doing a lot up and down the ticket ... but it’s something I’ve been considering over the past few years.” During her time as health director, she worked closely with Ohio Gov.
