Many earmarks to Ohio colleges were sponsored by more than one lawmaker.
Of those that were directed to individual schools, Republican Sen. George V. Voinovich and Democratic Rep. Marcy Kaptur, of Toledo, tied for the most, with 16. Voinovich's name was on $13.3 million, and Kaptur's was on $12.5 million.
They were followed by Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown, with 14 projects worth $11.6 million, and Republican Rep. David L. Hobson, of Springfield, with 14 projects worth $8.8 million.

Good for Marcy and good for Toledo. These are the pay backs for having a senior congresswoman.
