Allison Russo, Erik Yassenoff battle in the 24th Ohio House District

The two candidates in one of the state’s most competitive Ohio House seats, which includes Upper Arlington, part of Hilliard and Clintonville, and a western swath of Franklin County, come together to debate education, health care, taxes and other state policies. Russo has spent nearly two decades advising decision makers on heath care policy, most recently as policy research director for a health policy consulting firm. Yassenoff is CFO of his family's commercial real estate business and spent seven years as a policy adviser for the Kasich administration and eight years on Upper Arlington City Council. The seat is currently held by Rep. Jim Hughes, R-Upper Arlington, who is running for judge.
