In
November 2006, Ohio voters ended the twelve-year Republican stranglehold on all
statewide offices and elected a slate of Democratic candidates dedicated to
representing Ohioans’ true interests and addressing the issues they care about
most. Democrats are committed to reversing years of
misplaced Republican priorities and putting Ohio back on the right
track.

after graduation.
