My name is Jennifer Brunner, and I am running to become Ohio’s next Secretary of State. The focus of my campaign is to restore free, fair, open and honest elections for all Ohioans. I know that the cause of “fair elections” is important to many of you, and that Ohio is a priority as we all look to the 2008 presidential election.
As a former judge, elections board member and elections lawyer, I understand what free, fair, open and honest elections are all about. Ken Blackwell’s partisan and underhanded tactics as Secretary of State are outrageous and have hurt both Ohio’s reputation and our democracy.
I am running to change that.
UPDATE 10/24 4:45pm:
The Ohio Elections Commission found today that there is probable cause that Hartmann has lied about how Jennifer handled the case as referred to in his first ad. Hartmann brags about his experience as a prosecutor having handled "hundreds of violent felonies" but lied about information in his TV ad that any experienced prosecutor would know.
My opponent has no statewide name recognition, and in his first commercial he has chosen to attack my judicial record in a gross and misleading way. Our campaign has already filed an Ohio Elections Commission complaint for false statements made in connection with his first negative commercial. Hartmann’s ad is an attempt to distort the facts and to divert attention from his dismal lack of experience and
problematic management of the Hamilton County Clerk of Court’s office so that voters will be distracted from the exceptional experience and qualifications I will bring to Ohio as Secretary of State.
What You Can Do:
1) If you know anyone in Ohio, especially if they are undecided or may not know who I am, please
share my campaign commercial with them.
2)
Become a virtual phonebanker. You can stay in the comfort of your home and make phone calls from anywhere to help us win. It’s easy to signup and participate.
3)
Making a contribution (of any size) is an important way you can help as well.
I sincerely appreciate the help of everyone, both in Ohio and beyond, as we strive to restore fair and honest elections to the state of Ohio. Your help and participation is a part of that process, and I am very grateful for your support.
