Press Release from the Ohio Democratic Party:
Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redfern Statement On John Kasich's Announcement
COLUMBUS - Today, Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redfern issued the following statement regarding John Kasich's pending announcement of his candidacy for Governor:
"Ohio doesn't need a Governor from Wall Street; Ohio needs a Governor who will fight every day for our families on Main Street.
"While John Kasich was working for the greedy and powerful interests at Lehman Brothers, Governor Strickland was working hard for the people of Ohio. Even in these difficult economic times, our Governor has expanded health care for Ohio's children, reduced property taxes, frozen college tuition and proposed vital reforms to our education system.
"In the race for Governor, Ohioans have a choice between someone who was Managing Director at a Wall Street firm whose collapse led to our economic crisis and someone who has worked to turn our economy around, create jobs and invest in our future.
"We are confident that when voters learn about John Kasich's record of siding with the greedy and powerful, they will send Ted Strickland back to the Governor's Office in November 2010."
