President Trump on Saturday campaigned in Ohio for Republican state Sen. Troy Balderson ahead of a special House election next week, saying the Democratic opponent is controlled by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and favors open borders.
Running against the Trump-backed candidate is Democrat Danny O’Connor. Earlier Saturday, the president described O'Connor in a tweet as “a puppet” for Pelosi, “weak on Crime, Borders & your 2nd Amendment,” with a goal of raising taxes.
Before welcoming Balderson onstage, Trump described him as “really smart” and “a really hard worker” who would “fight for Ohio.”
Balderson promised to “fight alongside” the president on a variety of issues, and dubbed his opponent “Dishonest Danny O’Connor.”
“Dishonest Danny O’Connor wants to repeal those middle-class tax cuts. Dishonest Danny O’Connor wants to take away your guns. Dishonest Danny supports open borders and sanctuary cities,” Balderson argued. “Dishonest Danny O’Connor will fight against the policies that are turning our country around. And worst of all, Dishonest Danny O’Connor will vote for Nancy Pelosi for speaker.”

I think it’s 6-10, Balderson.
Monmouth is terrible. “Registered” not “likely” voters in OH is even more unreliable in OH than elsewhere because of Ohio’s “unaffiliated/independent” issue. (See my Twitter feed last night for a detailed explanation). These people vote at a rate of 40%, while Ds & Rs vote in the mid-70s.
Second, I’m pretty sure Monmouth was the outfit in 2016 that asked for “the youngest voter in the home.”
No bias there.
Same situation here. My Republican congressman is a zero, but his Dem opponent is an open-borders stooge. *sigh* I will vote for the Republican, but not with any enthusiasm.
They must have been lying!
