Ashford’s Re-Election Campaign Kicks off at Our Brothers
Place
By Carla Yvette
A re-election kick-off
event was held February 24 at Our Brothers Place for State
Representative Michael Ashford of House District 44.
Ashford, who also serves as Democratic Minority Whip in
Columbus says this year he’s facing a tough Republican
opponent and wants the people to get excited about the
upcoming election.

“I want people to get
excited and involved, not just for me but the governor is
going to be on the ballot and we have to turn Ohio around,”
said Ashford. “We have to get people out to elect not only a
new governor but African-American judges, county
commissioners etc.”
Ashford said he sees the
biggest challenge is that African Americans are their own
worst enemy. Speaking of the African-American votes, he
said: “We will show up 99 percent for Obama, 50 percent may
show up for governor, and maybe 35 percent will show up for
mayor or county commissioner and even less for judges. We
would have so much more of an impact locally if we
understood the power of our vote.”
