Illegal Election Days Actitivies From the Coleman Campaign
From an email tip:
A guy wearing a Coleman sticker handing out a Coleman literature card to ever single person coming into the 521 Sawyer Boulevard polling location. Also, there was Coleman (and some Tavares) literature all over the tables right when you come in.
The presiding judge decided not to report the incident. Shameful!
It sounds like this Democrat goon was being paid, as the rest of his email explains that this guy remained there for a few hours after first being noticed. It is amazing what Democrats get away with.

Ha ha ha.
Matt, your email tip doesn’t even provide enough information to determine whether this is even actually an allegation of impropriety. Last I checked, handing out lit to folks going to vote was legal. So let’s not pretend otherwise here.
Also, was the literature inside the door encroaching on the “campaign free” zone? Once again, your email doesn’t tell enough. Instead, like always, it’s a knee jerk “oh my gosh, look at how much they’re breaking the law post” without enough information to even determine if there’s actually a real allegation.
Typical.
Also, I’ve yet to see your projections for tonight. How much do you think Coleman will win by. I’ll be at the Westin if you feel like hanging out with the winners.

As a registered Democrat, I’ll be content in the short term that Mayor Coleman gets re-elected. But, I stand by my earlier claim (see link below for earlier post) that the current “win at all costs” behavior of Mr. Lie and Earn Todd Hoffman and the supposed “big boi” Bryan Clark (and their blog bashin’ “pay to say” lackeys) is NOT worth the negative “costs” in the long run.
Lying, manipulative propaganda techniques and thuggery are NOT acceptable ways to win elections for either party. Thus, Todd Hoffman and Bryan Clark need to STFU and stand down or they should start their exit out the Ohio Democratic Party Headquarters doors immediately.
They can take Chris Redfern with them and I truly hope the door hits all of them extremely hard in their overly brown-nosed corrupt asses.
Their methods are not even close to being a good way to rebuild a state political party that was down and out for ten years. The way they are operating can only be sustained successfully in the short term.
ODP supporters are becoming increasingly aware of the “lie and earn” and “big boi” mentalities of two very unwise and unethical individuals (Hoffman and Clark). Thus, many ODP supporters have been abandoning support. Others are considering fleeing from supporting the ODP in the very near future. You’re welcome to read my earlier post for more detail:
