OF NOTE...

Usually independent and third party candidates bring out the real issues that major party candidates are content with ignoring while they poke jabs at each other. In this race, from the beginning, Robert has been vocal about ending the no-bid contracts and unaccountable slush fund.

Yet in the Cleveland debate, Republican Michael Crites claims that he originated the idea of ending the no-bid contracts and after he and Robert had a conversation about it, Robert decided to claim the issue as his own.

The funny thing about that assertion is that A) Robert has never had a conversation with Michael Crites and B) Robert's own website verfies that he was outspoken on this issue while the Republicans still had a search party out for their candidate.

Protecting Ohio Taxpayers & Consumers

If we are to have Integrity for a Change in state government, we need to elect principled, independent leaders. But there can be no integrity in public office without a fundamental change in the system.

This is why I have proposed specific initiatives to: Eliminate large dollar no-bid contracts from the AG's office; Dramatically increase transparency of the office, by putting the specific financial information online and open to the public and the media; Returning monies collected by the AG's office back to the people's treasury; eliminating the current "slush fund" system; I will prosecute true consumer fraud to the fullest extent of the law.

As your Independent Attorney General, I will not be bound to powerful special interests.
