Post Letter: Commissioner candidate reaches out to LGBT community
Mar. 3, 2012As the Executive Board of Open Doors, Ohio University’s largest and oldest LGBT Student Union, we would like to publically thank Mike O’Brien for attending this week’s meeting. Mike is the first commissioner candidate in Athens County history to attend our meeting and speak one-on-one with our members about their concerns. In fact, he is one of only two county candidates to speak to our student group in recent Athens history, the other being Sheriff Pat Kelley during his first run for office. O’Brien’s demeanor was relaxed, gregarious and friendly, adding a warm and cheerful atmosphere to our meeting. All this aside, his point-blank statements and unapologetic progressive views at both our meeting and Tuesday’s candidate forum captivated us.
