I received word this week that I have been endorsed by the Central Labor Council, AFL-CIO and the Ohio Federation of Teachers. Check out my list of endosements - it's growing and I'm proud of the confidence shown in me by so many people. Fundraising is still top priority but  going door-to-door and talking to people in the District are equally important. If you're willing to go on your own to canvass for me (I can't do it all!), let me know and I'll get you a walking list and script. Please let me know if you'd like to walk with and/or for me or hold a houseparty in your neighborhood.  Meeting people and hearing what's on their minds is very important to me.  Sign up (or contribute!) right here on my web site.  We CAN turn the 19th House District blue and give Governor Strickland the majority he needs in the House to Turnaround Ohio.!

Thank You For Visiting!

Welcome to my online campaign office! 

I am ready to wage a positive campaign full of fresh ideas and a spirit of bipartisanship.  We all must work together to continue the great work that Governor Strickland has done since being elected in 2006.  There are many challenges facing us in Ohio and the 19th House District: the economy, health care, education, the environment and more. I am excited at the opportunity to bring my years of experience to the House to help address these issues. There is much work to be done and I need your help to do it. 

Please take a moment to view the issues page and see where I stand ...and then visit my blog where I hope to keep everyone updated on the activities of the campaign.  While you're here, sign up for my email list - I'll send out periodic updates on all the things that have been keeping me busy during this campaign.

Check out the picture gallery with assorted pictures from the current campaign and some from last year as well.  Please take a look.  There are some great pictures of campaign signs handmade by my grandchildren!

We need volunteers, so please consider lending a hand - there are lots of opportunities from mailings to phone calls to data entry to walking. We will need the support of many people to win the19th district in 2008.  There is a link to a volunteer form located on the top bar of this website.  Please consider clicking it and filling out the form.  I can really use your help!

I will need to raise money to be able to mount an effective campaign and to get the ideas of change out to the 19th district.  Any donation you can manage will be helpful ... and I thank you!

I ask for your help to turn around the 19th district and all of Ohio!
