It's very red but our own Sherrod Brown has been successful winning this district in the past and hopefully Ohio as a whole will be returning Brown back to the Senate.

This manly man stuff is the work of Morris Katz and Fight Agency. Yes, that Morris Katz. It seems silly because most voters are looking for plans and policy. MAGA are the ones obsessed with the manly man stuff. But if this ploy for wooing the MAGA who are looking for manly men works in this very red Republican Trumpy district I'll take it. Just don't push this manly man stuff all over the country and we're good.
