Cordray to speak in Oxford on Sept. 9
Next week, Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray will be the featured speaker at the Butler County Progressive Political Action Committee’s quarterly “Candidate’s Night” meeting.
The meeting begins at 7 p.m. Sept. 9 and will be at the LCNB Bank, 30 Park Place West, in Oxford. It’s free and open to the public.
In a press release, Cordray said, “I pledge to the people of Ohio that I will use my office to stand up for them against the forces that wrecked our economy and caused so much pain for so many.”
The release also stated a number of accomplishments by Cordray (and you can see it attached below), but the one thing that stands out to me is, he was a five-time “Jeopardy” champion.
At the meeting, Cordray will introduce Middletown attorney, J.C. Shew, who is seeking to defeat incumbent Ohio Rep. Tim S. Derickson, R-Oxford, for the 53rd District seat.
Other Democratic candidates speaking, include:
• Bruce Carter (running against incumbent Ohio Rep. Courtney Combs, R-Hamilton, for the 54th District seat, and independent Arnie Engel, of Fairfield);
• Suzi Rubin (running against incumbent Ohio Rep. Bill Coley, R-Middletown for the 55th District seat);
• Butch Hubble (running against Clerk or Court Cindy Carpenter for County Commission); and
• George Stephen (running against incumbent Butler County Auditor Roger Reynolds for auditor).
So, will you attend? If so, what do you hope to hear from these candidates?

It looks like Pitman is going to pick up where left-leaning, always biased Josh left it. Why is the journal writing about the “Progressives” but wrote nothing about the Republicans’s rally on Friday where Yost was present? This is yet another example why the Journal (and now Pitman) cannot be trusted!!!
