Only remaining statewide Democrat, Sherrod Brown, behind in polls

[Weekend Warrior]

SANDUSKY — The only statewide Democrat left in Ohio is running behind in early polls as he gears up for a 2018 re-election campaign.

U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, is seeking a third six-year term in a state where Republicans dominate in the executive branch, the Ohio Supreme Court and the Ohio General Assembly.

A People's Pundit Daily Buckeye State Battleground Poll taken on July 3-8 showed 50 percent of the people polled favoring current state treasurer Josh Mandel in a hypothetical matchup, versus 42 percent for Brown. Other polls taken this year also have shown Brown trailing.

Brown is really solid. We need to keep him.

1. I can't believe that little pencil neck piece of shit is so close to beating Brown. WTF happened

to that place. Lived there for 14 years. But there was still a semblance of sanity. The local state party is in shambles as well.

6. White anger over immigrants and lack of blue collar jobs?

5. Mandel is a festering pimple. He must be defeated.

8. I don't think anyone is worried about a right wing poll this far out.

I'm not saying he shouldn't be worried, just not by this poll. "People's Pundit Daily" is a right wing blog.

10. "just not by this poll."

It references multiple polls.

13. And Brown needs our support.

I'll send a donation. We've gotta keep him in office.

9. Ohio has really moved to the right in recent years

Sad to see.

12. Idiocracy Indeed

Ohio is like the overall USA.....little pockets of blue in large metro areas, a sea of red in rural areas. All those people voting republican would benefit more with democrats, but they vote for the right because of cultural issues including blatant racism.

My guess is that Sherrod will surge and win.
