U.S. Rep. Greg Landsman's Former Seat Occupied by Seth Walsh in Ohio Treasurer Race
Seth Walsh, who was elected to the Cincinnati City Council in 2022, took the seat previously vacated by U.S. Representative Greg Landsman. Walsh is now running for Ohio Treasurer against Republican Jay Edwards. Walsh, who ran unopposed in the Democratic primary, has a background in community redevelopment projects in Cincinnati and serves on several city council committees, including Budget and Finance. He also sits on the Cincinnati Retirement System Board of Trustees, which his campaign highlights as relevant experience for overseeing Ohio's $280 billion budget. Walsh advocates for returning unclaimed funds to their rightful owners rather than using them for projects like sports stadiums and pledges to ensure Ohio's public dollars are invested within the state, specifically stating he will not make new investments in Israel or any other country. He also plans to assess Ohio's investments in BBB bonds and advocate for reinvestment in higher-rated bonds.
