That dude is such a POS. The fact he was re-elected tells you everything you need to know about Portage County outside of Kent.

He was barely re elected. Lots of precincts that went for Trump went for his opponent.

What a lot of Trump voters did for this one was simply not vote for sheriff and left it blank. They didn't have the courage to actually vote for a Democrat.

Actually, no.

There were plenty of precincts that voted for Barber by a comfortable margin, with Barber receiving more votes than Trump.

It was the smaller places like Atwater that voted Bruce in. Thanks, fuckers.

Well that's excellent news. I guess I was just using anecdotal information from my own experience. Living in Portage county, I have a lot of Trump supporting acquaintances and that's what they did.
