We had 3 items on our ballot in Ohio

[Marthe48]

to decide a township trustee race, school board race and renew an emergency services levy.
A tea party woman I know who lives in my precinct in SE Ohio asked me Tuesday morning what was on the ballot. I told her. She said that she'd heard that Christie was running and kind of trialed off. I said he is, but we can't vote for him, we can vote for a governor in Ohio, but no other state. I took the high road...

1. TRUE!

I have lived in Ohio since 1989. I am always an amazed that so many are so fools/ignorant/stupid/99%ers who are backing republicans when they are in poverty. EESH......it burns, the stupidity....

2. Sadly, too true

I've lived in Ohio my whole life. This woman is in her 70's, works as an aide to an elderly lady I know, paid very well, but does polls online for extra income. She is always broke, doesn't have a pot or a window, nor do her children, grandchildren etc. She thinks she knows it all, so I stopped bothering to talk to her, because in spite of her lack of financial security, and her crappy life, she thinks she is backing the right horse. I don't understand anyone who willingly bets against herself, against her own best interests.
