elections...Cuyahoga did not come out...why would they. Some candidates didn't even bother to go. And let me just say there is a very large population in Northern Ohio. Columbus had huge protests as did other place.
And for the 2nd straight night we saw protests in downtown Columbus as well,

More than 100 people demonstrated.
VIENNA — Demonstrators over the weekend in Vienna and Marietta protested what they felt were the illegal actions under the administration of President Donald Trump and the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.
Events organized by Indivisible MOV were held on Saturday on Grand Central Avenue in Vienna and on Sunday at Ohio Route 7 and Acme Street near Kroger in Marietta. Ninety-three protesters were in Vienna and 115 in Marietta, organizer Meryl Clark said.
The two emergency protests were in response to both overreach by the Trump administration’s recent actions in Venezuela and the death of Renee Good, a Minneapolis, Minn., mother who was killed at the hands of an ICE agent, according to Indivisible MOV.
Lori Flis of Vienna, an organizer with Indivisible MOV, said the initial protest was organized over what was happening in Venezuela and grew to include recent actions in Minneapolis with Good’s shooting by a federal officer.
“Our concern about that started with the murder of people in their boats without any due process, without any evidence that they were running drugs or are narcoterrorists,” she was quoted in the release. “We expanded (Saturday’s) message because we were all so distraught over the murder of that 37-year-old woman. We realize that ICE is not in our area but that doesn’t mean that they won’t be.”Jan 12, 2026

Seriously, you need to understand, we fight for our nation against Nazis, KKK and Gestapo...now called ICE...they will be sorry. Many of them will face lengthy prison sentences.
