In response, Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redfern released the following statement:“As voters learn more about the Democratic candidates, the more confident we become that our ticket will be successful, and this polling reflects just that. Voters know that Republican policies have been a failure with Ohio’s job growth lagging behind the rest of the nation, Ohioans giving up on their job search, and they are ready for Democrats who fight every day for an Ohio that works for everyone.”
