From The Columbus Dispatch: Ohio could lose more than $400 million in federal Race to the Top funds if Gov.-elect John Kasich follows through with his plan to dump outgoing Gov.

Strickland, who lost to Kasich by 2 percentage points on Nov. 2, raised concern that the federal aid may go the way of his re-election bid in a speech before the Ohio School Board Association's annual conference in Columbus.
