Now, you said voted not once, not twice, but nine times against lowering health insurance premiums. Nine times. Now, why would you do that? Well, it's pretty simple. He's taken $700 ,000 from the same insurance companies that are jacking up your premiums. He cast the deciding vote to take health care away from 490 ,000 Ohioans. That comes next year. They didn't want to do it before the election. Now why would he do that? Of course, to pay for a tax cut for his billionaire buddies and his corporate cronies. And Husted was at the center of the largest bribery scandal in Ohio history. A $61 million bribe that almost doubled your electric rates.
