Strickland should be voted out of office. He doesn’t deserve to be there. He doesn’t do his job. He stood behind Jennifer Brunner when she refused to investigate 200,000 fraudulent voter registration/voter fraud claims last Presidential election. Remember that? I do. Strickland is a crook just like the rest of the progressives. Vote him out unless you want more of the same. We need to clean house.
