A "divider" like GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump will have a hard time winning Ohio, an important battleground that could help decide the election in November, said Buckeye State Gov. John Kasich, a former Republican presidential candidate.
"Ohio's a snapshot of the country. People in Ohio want to see a positive agenda, a positive way to move forward," Kasich said Friday in an interview at the Union League of Philadelphia. He attended a fund-raiser for Brian Fitzpatrick, a Bucks County Republican running for an open congressional seat.
Kasich's remarks came a day after Trump accepted the Republican Party's nomination at its convention in Cleveland. Kasich, who dropped out of the presidential primary campaign in May after Trump effectively clinched the nomination, did not attend the convention.
"Without an endorsement, I thought it would be inappropriate for me to go in there and make some kind of a talk," Kasich said.

Yep, the big metropolitan areas will decide the states. The demographics have shifted, and not in our favor.
If we only go after the white vote and alienate everyone else... we will lose every time.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. If Kasich is promoting unity, how can he be supporting a candidate who is running against somebody else? Isn't that in itself divisive, which, by definition, is the opposite of unity?
Or is Kasich just full of carp?
Buddy Roemer, as a Democrat, came to welcome the 1988 convention to New Orleans.
That’s right, one is either FOR Trump or he is not. There is no other option.
That's what was aid in 1952 about an Ohioan, Robert Taft!
All of Kasich’s get out the vote apparatus is in the Trump camp. Paul Manafort to the rescue.
And look where it got Taft!!!!
Thanks. I was hoping you would weigh in and am glad to see that prediction.
I think eventually even the stupid Kay-sick will come aboard-—but then I thought that about Cruz, and look how he self-immolated.
