The Hamilton County Democratic Party announced Saturday the non-incumbent candidates it will endorse in this year's elections.

        For the 1st U.S. House District, the committee endorsed Greg Martin, a member of the Cincinnati Port Authority board and formerly of the Southwest Ohio Carpenter's union.

        In the 2nd U.S. House District, the candidate is Charles Sanders, former mayor of Waynesville, who has run previously against Rob Portman.

        For Hamilton County commissioner, the candidate is Dr. Jean Siebenaler, a family doctor.

        In the 30th state House District, Bob Klug, a longtime Democratic Party activist from Green Township, was endorsed.

        In the 33rd state House District, the committee did not endorse a candidate because three are running: Minette Cooper, Tyrone Yates and Leroy Hopkins.

        In the 34th state House District, the committee endorsed David Schaff, president of Hamilton County Young Democrats.

        In the 7th state Senate District, Tony Fischer of Anderson Township, who is running in his first race, was endorsed.

        Two men were endorsed for common pleas judge: Cincinnati attorneys Bruce Whitman and Bill Gallagher.
