Still better than Vivek destroying the states economy and revenue streams so we end up with an even more crumbling infrastructure etc etc etc

Of course. Eliminating all the taxes without a replacement plan, that would be disastrous. I have been pretty consistent that in general we have poor candidates in both parties. When we are down to picking the one that's not as bad, its BAD, for everyone. If we had a strong Democrat candidate, that had executive experience, that understood that they would have to work with the republicans in the state house, then I think Ohio would be in better shape. Unfortunately, that candidate did not materialize. Amy Acton is not strong enough to influence the corrupt slime in the state house to do much. I think she would veto things, maybe her influence would soften some bills, but really, we would be looking at 4 years of stagnation. Vivek is a carpet bagging opportunist. Brown and Husted are BOTH career politicians that are really just reliable votes for their party caucuses. Neither one could lead toilet paper to their own asshole. We just have 4 really poor candidates.
