Republican Headquarters?

Post by Stan Austin »

We have vibrant and active headquarters for Democratic Presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.

If (heaven forbid) I wanted to participate in a Republican candidate's presidential campaign, where would I go?

I would direct that question to our Republican Mayor.
Or perhaps to the "Lakewood Democratic Club", which is known to support GOP candidates.

I would imagine any Republican campaign office would likely be placed strategically in Brecksville, Broadview Heights, Westlake, or Pepper Pike.

Since the majority of our representative districts have been Gerry-mandered to cater to left-wingers, I would imagine this would be the case for almost any political candidate. Look at state house district 13, talk about catering to the left, geez!

The Republicans are the ones who manufactured these districts. The GOP was in complete control of this process in the Ohio State House. They wanted to squeeze as many Democrats into as few districts as possible in order to get more Republicans elected to Congress. As a side benefit they got rid of Dennis Kucinich, one of their favorite targets.

Thanks Mike, I didn't know where to begin with that one! How long has the right been in control of the Ohio State House? Long as I can remember. No way they would draw districts to benefit the left!

Look at Cuyahoga County Government that is run by Democrats. My god, what a frickin mess! It appears one doesn't have to look far there for corruption.

the map of Ohio's Congressional districts is quite a jigsaw puzzle.

Stan,

Given the results tonight for Trump, just look around for guys in white sheets and burning crosses or near a group of guys that are sleeping on jobs sites and look like they're from eastern Europe.
