by Chad D. Baus

7:00am Wednesday, October 21, 2020

I have a confession to make. I have listened to every single one of Governor Mike DeWine's "coronavirus" press conferences.

Every election season, we are bombarded with surveys and polls purporting to tell us what voters think and what their intentions are. The 2020 general election is no exception.
