As our cost of living goes up, we need an attorney general who will fight for us and protect us against financial wrongdoing that cuts into our paychecks and hurts our families.

candidates for Secretary of State continue to trumpet false claims of widespread voter fraud and still refuse to admit the results of the 2020 presidential election. Despite board of elections staff saying drop boxes are safe, secure and ensure more Ohioans can cast their ballot. has more lies and conspiracy theories about voting to justify their cheating and making voting harder.

OPINION: Brett Larkin
In close election campaigns, sleaze becomes MAGA’s weapon of choice. Unfortunately, it often works in Ohio. In the last two elections for the United States Senate, voters have elected candidates who lack the principles or intellectual honesty to serve in any office whatsoever. There was a time, not that long ago, when both JD Vance (now vice president) and Bernie Moreno would have been unelectable for high office in Ohio.

💙 Meet Easton Retzke — Running for Ohio House District 89! 💙
The Democratic Women of Erie County are proud to spotlight one of the most exciting new voices in our region — Easton Retzke, candidate for Ohio House District 89!
At just 21 years old, Easton is proof that the next generation is not waiting on the sidelines. He is stepping up, showing out, and ready to fight for the working families of this district. 💪
A lifelong Sandusky resident, Easton knows firsthand what families here are dealing with — rising housing costs, underfunded schools, aging infrastructure, and limited economic opportunity. These are not talking points for him. They are the everyday realities of the community he grew up in and loves.
🎓 Easton graduated in December with a bachelor's degree in Political Science, with experience in public policy, constitutional principles, and communications through his work with the Ohio State Political Science Department Alumni Advisory Board. He has also worked in the service industry — which means he knows what it means to work hard and still feel like the system is not working for you.
🏠 His priorities are clear: stronger public education, expanded economic opportunity, improved infrastructure, affordable housing, and a government that is transparent and accountable to the people — not to special interests or political insiders.
🌟 Easton's campaign recently earned an endorsement from the Ohio Young Democrats, and the energy behind his run is only growing!
He says it simply — government should work for the people it serves. That is exactly the kind of leadership Erie County needs in Columbus.
💙 Let's show Easton some love, Democratic Women! Share this post and help spread the word! 💙
