Does anyone know if Pat Tiberi is being contested in the upcoming election

[truhavoc]

I would love to see his ass removed from congress just soley based on his idiotic responses to my letters and emails. I'm somewhat surprised that Columbus has a republican for its congressional district.

1. Isnt Cols gerrrymanderd?

I seem to recall that Franklin County is split into two congressional districts, both of which go out into the rural GOP hinterlands.

Sort of like what they did to Dayton.

3. Yep

Columbus is divided down the middle. Each district encompasses the Republican suburbs and into some farmlands. It drives me crazy that we have a Dem. mayor and all the members of City Council are Dems., but the House Representatives are uber-conservative.

2. Not really

Yes, Edward Brown is running in the 12th, but he has absolutely no chance. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he's the only Dem. running for Congress that wasn't formally endorsed by the ODP. He's a pleasant man, but he has no political experience, he's very long-winded, and has no financial backing.

I completely agree that I would be delighted to see a viable candidate run against Tiberi. He must be following in Kasich's footsteps by sending ridiculous responses to letters.

4. I don't know how formal it is, but

they do list him on the website.
