COLUMBUS, OH (wosu) - The campaign of U.S. Senate candidate Jennifer Brunner has reported a theft from its downtown Columbus campaign office to local police.

A spokeswoman for Brunner, the Democratic secretary of state, says the laptop of the campaign's finance director and a tote bag were stolen sometime Wednesday. Nothing else of value was found missing.

1. Ohio has a history of that particular dirty trick.

3. There is a thriving business in stolen laptops in Columbus

I've worked as a contractor in a number of places here and thefts happen very regularly. At least 8 or 9 times while I was at Nationwide, alerts came out to notify security for anyone with a large number of laptops. They would come into the building around lunch and find a deserted section and just go from desk to desk and gather up as many as they could then get out. I also know at least a dozen people that have had theirs stolen from their car because they left it in the back seat.
