Primary elections are just a few weeks away and that is when we have a real choice of candidates, not just a “political party” choice as so often is the case in the November general elections. Are you informed about all the candidates running for the same office? Meeting each candidate can confirm or change your mind about which candidate you will vote for.
MVCI will be featuring three candidates at our April meeting:
Melissa Ackison, Mike Gibbons and John Mitchel. Two of these candidates (Ackison and Gibbons) are running (as is Jim Renacci) to be the GOP candidate who will go on to challenge Sherrod Brown for his Senate seat in the November 2018 general election.
Mr. John Mitchel is challenging incumbent GOP Representative Mike Turner in this May Primary election.
MVCI wants to make sure all candidates have the opportunity to meet, greet and share with you. We were pleased to present Jim Renacci in February and now these additional candidates were willing to come as well. Please do not pass up this opportunity…..many voters do not get the chance to meet these candidates in person. We look forward to an interesting and informative meeting.
