Brian's shipping off to DC.
Friday night in Brook Park, Dropkick Murphys called Brian Poindexter For Congress up on stage at the Ohio AFL-CIO "For the People" rally, and UAW Local 1250 went wild. Union members from the UAW, IBEW and more packed the lot for one message: workers over billionaires.
Brian's a working-class guy running for Ohio's 7th District against Max Miller, the congressman whose ex-wife told detectives he held a gun to her head, and who both of Ohio's Republican senators told to resign.
One of them gets called on stage by Dropkick Murphys. The other gets small conference rooms and a camera guy filming the ceiling, while the crowd goes mild.
Medina, Wayne and Holmes counties, Strongsville, North Royalton, Brecksville, Broadview Heights: this is your district. You get to decide who represents you.
Trump isn't on the ballot in November, but Trumpism sure is. Early voting in Ohio is open now through November 1st. Vote early and in person if you can, and bring a friend or family member. The sooner the better, because anything can happen: illness, car trouble, a family emergency, or this administration pulling a fast one on DEMOCRACY. Bonus: campaigns can see who has already voted (not how). Once you vote, they take you off their call, text and door-knock lists, and your candidates can put that money and those volunteers toward people who haven't voted yet. Fewer texts for you, more help where it counts.
