Dennis Kucinich and Marcy Kaptur Race Heats Up

Lorain County is focus at roundtable on Wednesday.

A candidates' forum in Lorain on Wednesday highlighted differences for Lorain County voters between Dennis Kucinich and Marcy Kaptur, two veteran Democrats who will face off in the March 6 primary.

Republicans redrew the congressional map this year and put the political veterans in the same, newly configured 9th Congressional district, which stretches 100 miles along Lake Erie from Cleveland to Toledo.

On Wednesday, Kucinich and Kaptur sparred over a commuter line that has been long proposed between Cleveland and Sandusky.
