Coughlin on Nero for State Reprentative

This just in this morning's WMD Mailbag:

Dear Friends,

Richard Nero is running for State Representative in my old House seat (42nd District). I recently met Rich and found him to be a candidate who will bring a wealth of knowledge and skills to the legislature. He's a business leader with a strong grasp of the challenges facing Ohio, particularly access to affordable health care and to a quality efficient education.

Rich's opponent in the March 4th primary is a part-time bouncer at a downtown Akron nightclub and is pursuing an online degree from Grand Canyon College.

The prospect of a turnover of control in the Ohio House is not quite what is was prior to the filing deadline. House Democrats missed several opportunities to field quality candidates and I am more optimistic than ever that the Republican majority will be held in the Ohio House. The Democrats did, however, recruit fairly well in the 42nd District. Although it's a Republican leaning district, the right candidate is needed to keep it in our majority.

Take a moment to view Richard Nero's video message and website. I think you'll find him to be a candidate worth touching base with and supporting in his effort.

Sincerely,

Kevin Coughlin
State Senator
