WLWT’s on April 5 at Miami University
“A POSITIVE DIRECTION”.Breitbart covered a recent poll, noting in high regard JD’s position in the race. The article wrote:
The polling memo has some other interesting facts that seem to bode well for Vance’s prospects in the final eight weeks of the primary as well. First off, the Super PAC just went up on television in the past few weeks with a new advertisement boosting Vance—something that seems to be working. Among those who have seen the ad, the pollsters note, Vance actually leads the field of GOP primary voters with 24 percent—overtaking Gibbons’ 19 percent among that subset of the sample.
WITH TUCKER. JD joined Fox News’ Tucker Carlson last week to discuss Ukraine while securing our own border.
“If we’re going to send $10 Billion of aid to the Ukrainians…What Republicans should do to look out for our own voters is to say that for every $1 that goes to the Ukrainians we should send $3 to the American southern border. Finish President Trump’s border wall, actually get some more border patrol agents to control that crisis at our own border. And if we did that, then I think our citizens would feel like their own leaders were actually looking out for them.” – JD Vance
CINCINNATI TOWN HALL. During a #NoBSTour town hall, JD caught up with WLWT’s John London about his campaign. London’s coverage said, in part:
With designs on the U.S. Senate, J.D. Vance is in a five-way political brawl for recognition and votes.
Listen to him speak about his chances and you walk away convinced that he just might do it, just might outpoll his Republican Party competitors.
He is personable, persuasive, passionate and persistent.
IN HAMILTON. JD kicked off another round of his #NoBSTour in Hamilton.
MANSFIELD STOP. JD stopped in Mansfield as part of his tour, spoke with voters and chatted about his race with the Mansfield News Journal. The article, in part, said:
The U.S. Marine veteran has labeled himself as a "conservative outsider" who wants to focus on issues such as securing the nation's southern border, combating the use of opioids and strengthening America's economy, among others.
He acknowledged to the group of about 30 inside Saint Luke's Lutheran Church on Marion Road that winning the Republican primary this spring would not be easy given the number of well-known contenders.
"We're in for a real fight," Vance said. "I think it's a fight for the soul of the party."
EAST CANTON. JD went on to speak with voters in East Canton this week, and caught up with the Canton Repository.
IN STRONGSVILLE. Continuing his #NoBSTour, JD made a stop in Strongsville.
STEUBENVILLE STOP. JD spoke with voters in
Steubenville, and his visit was covered by the Herald-Star.
J.D. Vance may be from the opposite side of the state, but his campaign for U.S. Senate has made him become a frequent visitor of the area.
Vance, an author, venture capitalist and former Marine who describes himself as a “conservative outsider” in the race told a crowd of around 30 that Steubenville “reminded him of home,” the smalltown of Middletown.
LANCASTER VISIT. JD also visited a full house in Lancaster!
WITH SCOTT SANDS. JD spoke with Toledo radio’s Scott Sands last week about a number of issues. Listen here!
"I proposed declaring the Mexican drug cartels a terrorist organization, but also eliminating welfare for illegal aliens. The first of those Biden would call reckless, the second he would call racist...their own ideology doesn't let them deal with reality,” said JD on the air.
CPAC. JD spoke at the annual CPAC conference – watch his speech here!
