Husted goes in favored. How much, IDK, which is why I don't want to prognosticate on the specifics of the general. At this juncture, best to worst Republican opponent for the Democrats goes:
- Taylor
- Renacci
- DeWine
- Husted
In my opinion, OFC.
Completely agree
As do I
more I think about it, there is something special about husted, hes conservative in the right areas for conservatives, moderate in the right areas for moderates. If he wasn't a white man he'd probably be one of the biggest rising stars in the national republican party
And Democrats don't mind him that much because we know at the end of the day, he's one of the few Ohio Republicans we can work with.
Why Democrats think we can work with someone who purged 550,000 voters and has been awful for voting rights is beyond me. Am I the only one who remembers fighting for Golden Week in '14?
No, but he didn't try to screw around with the ballot language on the SB5 repeal, refused to endorse Trump (actually refused, not the BS "I support the nominee" schtick Portman has), and seems at least somewhat open to redistricting reform. I mean, I wouldn't vote for him for Governor, but I do think he has crossover appeal.
Didn't he help nuke that in 2012 when he screwed around with the ballot language?
