In an email to supporters Thursday morning, former U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich said he planned to announce his candidacy for Ohio governor on Wednesday.
In the email, Kucinich said he plans to unveil his candidacy at the Middleburg Heights Community Center. Andy Juniewicz, a spokesman for Kucinich, said the email was accurate.
The news of Kucinich's impending entry comes days after he designated a treasurer for his campaign. He becomes the sixth Democrat to enter the race. Richard Cordray, former director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and former U.S. Rep. Betty Sutton announced Wednesday they would join forces on a single ticket.
Ohio Democratic Party Chairman David Pepper said Kucinich is welcome to join the Democratic primary so long as he participates in the vetting process. He said he has not heard from Kucinich formally.
Kucinich, 71, a former mayor of Cleveland, has not run for office since 2012, when he lost to U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur, a Democrat from Toledo, after the two were redistricted to face each other. Since then, he has appeared as a frequent contributor on Fox News.

That dude out-punted his coverage
It wasn't an endorsement that was easy to come by. And yes, apparently squirrels do vote Democrat.
Kucinich was one of the few honest liberals around. He won’t survive 10 minutes in today’s rat party.
Couldnt she help him find clothes that fit properly?
