CLEVELAND — Ohio Has Issues is airing a special episode before, during and after the Republican Senate primary candidate forum hosted by Spectrum News.
Ohio Has Issues will start at 7:30 PM on Monday, Feb. 19, with an interview with Spectrum News' Mike Kallmeyer who is hosting the forum and will give us a preview of what to expect when the forum begins at 8 PM at the University of Findlay.
During the forum, Ohio Has Issues will stay live so you can hear more from Stephanie's previous conversations with Ohio State Senator Matt Dolan and Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, while sharing publicly posted quotes from businessman Bernie Moreno. Stephanie and Mike will also check in live to give updates on what's happening in the forum.
After the forum ends at 9 PM, Stephanie and Mike will be joined by Republican strategist Mehek Cooke, former Cuyahoga County commissioner Lee Weingart, Ohio Legislative Black Caucus Foundation President and CEO Shayla Davis, and Democratic strategist Jeff Rusnak to break down what the candidates said during the forum.
Editor's note: Mike Polk Jr. did not, in fact, confuse the 20th president of the United States with Spiderman. It was just a long Presidents' Day. Watch Ohio Has Issues here:
