Democrats Discuss: Ohio Democrats keep losing
Last year was poised to be a great year for Ohio Democrats. In addition to the “Blue Wave” that would wash over the country, Ohio Republicans had been caught asleep at the wheel as the ECOT scandal allowed millionaires to get richer at the expense of Ohio students. At the same time, the unchecked opioid epidemic increased overdose deaths to the second highest in the country per capita. It appeared 2018 was going to be similar to the last “Blue Wave” midterm in 2006 when President Bush slumped in the polls and the Ohio GOP was caught up in the CoinGate scandal.
