• 1:00
  Speaker 1: standing by talking about these elections and these commercial I just.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to take the negative commercials. Gene. You
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: are on six to ten WTV.
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: And Hi, Hi, how you doing tonight?
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: I am fine, a little cranky, but otherwise fine.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's pretty well out here. Well, I just wanted
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: to say Sharon Brown, when he was in the Ohio Legislature,
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: he was one of the youngest legislators ever voted into
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: that office. Most of the time in the Ohio Legislature
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: because I worked there in.
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: Nineteen eighties for ten years, he spent his time chasing
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: after the young pages and skirts, sweeping with him, or
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: smoking marijuana upstairs in the second floor of the inne.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Like I said, we don't want negative commercials coming back
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: the other way because there's plenty to put out there.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: That's right, Sharon needs to take up look in the
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: mirror before he opens his mouth.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Geene, I appreciate the call on the insight. Thanks very much.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: A two one nine eight eighty six. Let's go to
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: a casey on six to NAUTV.
• 2:01
  Speaker 6: In Hey, Chuck, how you doing tonight?
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Fine? Sir? How are you good?
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Hey, Chuck?
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: Just just a couple of things I voted today myself.
• 2:12
  Speaker 6: You know, one of the things I've always wanted to ask,
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: and you know, when I have school levees on everywhere,
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: you know, additional levees, all that I would like to know,
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: like where the monies went for the Ohio lottery, where
• 2:25
  Speaker 6: the moneies are going for the casinos, and where are
• 2:28
  Speaker 6: the money is going for the marijuana all the taxes,
• 2:32
  Speaker 6: because it certainly doesn't seem to be going to where
• 2:35
  Speaker 6: they should be going, which is the taxes in the schools,
• 2:39
  Speaker 6: and even like the roads and everything else. It's just ridiculous.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm not sure about the marijuana money, and I'm
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: not sure about the casino money or the marijuana money.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I can tell you though, on the lottery. I can
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: tell you exactly what happened. It was first time out
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: with this thing, and they said the proceeds from the
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: lottery will benefit the schools. And they did not lie.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: The proceeds from the lottery go to the schools. How
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: have for what they didn't tell you is if they
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: allocated ten million dollars in the general fund to go
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: to the schools, Well, once that lottery money is ten
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: million dollars. They just take that ten million dollar of
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: the general fund and put it for something else. So
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: it's not like the school's got more money. They just
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: started using it as an alternative funding source so they
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: could use the money in the general fund some other way.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 3:21
  Speaker 6: If they would continue to use the money through the lottery, though,
• 3:23
  Speaker 6: they would not have to be putting these levies on
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: the ballance each and every election day.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: I agree.
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: Ridiculous.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: I agree.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: You know, they want to change the taxes and everything
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: on the sports gambling. They want to change the taxes
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: on the casino gambling. Look, quit grubbing our money unless
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: we're getting something back for it, and so far I
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: don't think the people in Ohio are getting.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Much back for it, right exactly.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Thank you very much, Scott. You have
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: a good day. Be careful out there. I'm not Casey, kay,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: I said Scott. It was Casey. You have a good
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: day out there, and be careful on the wet roads.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Scott now you're on six to n WTVN.
• 3:58
  Speaker 7: Good evening, Chuck, thank you for taking my call. I
• 4:01
  Speaker 7: will have to say you're the most interesting and entertaining
• 4:05
  Speaker 7: man in Columbus radio. I wanted to share my voting
• 4:09
  Speaker 7: experience this morning. I think I was like the sixth
• 4:12
  Speaker 7: person there, and they were having problems with their machine.
• 4:15
  Speaker 7: Oh no, it didn't print. It didn't print out my
• 4:18
  Speaker 7: initial ballot properly. And it took them approximately forty five
• 4:25
  Speaker 7: minutes to figure it out and get me a new
• 4:28
  Speaker 7: ballot so I could actually vote. They asked me if
• 4:31
  Speaker 7: I wanted to come back. I said no, no, no,
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: I'm doing it now. I'm not leaving. But I ended
• 4:35
  Speaker 7: up sitting there for forty five minutes for them to
• 4:39
  Speaker 7: figure out how to reprint my ballot and get it correct.
• 4:42
  Speaker 7: It was a little frustrating, but I got it done.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: It seems like they should be able to just void
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: out the ballot they gave you and put you on
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: another machine.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Why was that unthinkable?
• 4:51
  Speaker 7: They had to call like five different people. They were
• 4:54
  Speaker 7: going through their books. They had like ten different passwords.
• 4:57
  Speaker 7: They were very confused. They said that it hadn't happened before,
• 5:01
  Speaker 7: and I was the guinea pig, so I kind of
• 5:04
  Speaker 7: got got that kind of luck this morning.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Well I'm sorry for your experience, but I'm glad you
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: stuck it out. Scott, and I appreciate the kind words
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: at the beginning of your call.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: Thank you very much, Thank you, sir.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: You two eight two one nine eight eighty six is
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: my number eight two one WTV. And no, he is
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: not paid. There was no political action committee that paids
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: got to say nice things about me.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: He just is.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Apparently a nice guy and I appreciate that. And I
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: still here's how naive I am. I still believe it
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: is possible to be a nice guy and not finish last.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I still believe it is possible to be a nice
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: guy and occasionally actually win a few.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: I know that in today's world.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Oh no, man, you've got to be and you have
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: to do when you hear nope, nope, not gonna happen.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: I am Charlie's son. I know exactly what he's looking
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: down on me, expecting me to be. And that's what
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I'm going to be and I'm not.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: I will not be.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: A covert, nasty, backstabbing lion, funting or other just to
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: get ahead. I can't do it, and I don't have
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: a lot of love for people who can A two
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: one nine eighty six. Dave, you are on sixthn WTVN.
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: You staying dry there tonight.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Staying dry inside. If I go outside, I'm in trouble.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, tell me about it. I'm calling about the primary
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: and that the day and that years ago. When I
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: used to vote in the primaries, I don't know more
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: than this is part of the reason is there was
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: either two or maybe three ballots that were printed every
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: year for the primary. You'd go in, you'd sign in,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: they would ask you, are you Democrat or Republican, and
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: whatever party you said, that was the ballot that you've got. God,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: so you would not see no Republican names on the
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Democrat ballot or Democrat names on the Republican ballot right ballot.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: And so I'm not sure about it. I think you
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: could do yad to declare either Republican Democrat, or you
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: can do issues only.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what you would still have to do that.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: When I signed in today, they have the thing on
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: the touch screen there. I had to pick my party
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: affiliation and then it gave me the ballot for that
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: that party vote.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: So the one guy who called in and that and
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: he was saying about where he didn't see no Republicans
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: at all won their ballots, and that that on his
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: and his wife's ballots, and that that would be why
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: and that, I mean, well on the which party you
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: claim are.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: The Republican ballot? No, the that there were like seven
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: or eight judges where nobody had filed a petition to
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: run for judge. There's a county commissioner slot, nobody filed
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: a petition to run for county commissioner. It was it
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: was disgusting to see all those blank spaces on the.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Republicans and two two on the Republican ballot. And that
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: some of that too, is that they're running unopposed in November.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: You may not even see him. It's what it's on there,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: and that is for us to choose what candidates we want.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: So if there's only one person and they're only running unopposed,
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: their name may not be on the ballot. Well, they
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: that says that saves the money.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the opposed people are still on there. I mean
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Don Roberts. I know he's running for my my state
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: house or my state Senate seat, and he was on there,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: he was unopposed.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: But it's just right.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: It's just a matter of we can't we can't get
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: anybody to run. We've spent years of having a party
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: that has come across as being uninvolved, unattached, inept, unconcerned,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: and and actually admitted in the Columbus Dispatch, we just
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: assume Franklin County is a loss to the Democrats, so
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: we don't try. That is a problem.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: I agree with you on that there and that that.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: But another thing too, and that is isn't that there's
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: a lot of these offices when they when they're running
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: that that the American people we really don't get to
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: choose on who's going to run for that office. It
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: comes down to the like you said earlier, the party
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: big weeks decide on who's going to run for what offer.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: Well, and that's where we are with governor. That's where
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: we are with Governor.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: I voted for Ramaswami because he is He's if anybody's going.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: To be amy acting, it'll be him.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: I don't think that mister Putsch has the the notoriety
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: or or whatever horsepower he needs to get heard of.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: That one's name, yeah, Casey Puts or Putch p u
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: t H. I believe it is.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: Now I've heard the one, and then I'm not even
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: going to try to pronounce his name.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the one he said, he is the heir apparent.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: He's the one that all the campaign money will go behind.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: And uh, at this point, it's about making sure Amy
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: not a Democrat, but Amy acting does not become governor.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: That's what I got to stop. Yeah.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: That that that's why I don't vote in the primary,
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: because you've got to choose what part what party you are,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: and that ye goes. I vote ninety eight percent of
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: the time Republican and a couple of times, but I
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: will if I think the Democrat candidate has a better idea,
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: better ideas, I'll vote for them. Then that's like years
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: ago in that there is it's either ban a bitch
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: or the wine. I'm thinking it's the wine. When they
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: were in Washington years ago, they actually got on national
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: TV and said they didn't care what the what the
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Ohio people in Ohio wanted. He had to boot his conscience.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: That's that that was dealing with the I think it
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: was the bicycle I mean the motorcycle helmets when they reinstated.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: That law, Yeah, which made perfect sense. You can you
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: have to have a motorcycle helmet until you're eighteen on
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: a motorcycle, but after eighteen you don't need a motorcycle
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: helmet in Ohio. However, if you're in four thousand pounds
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: of metal in a titanium cage, you have to strap
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: yourself into the seat.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: I'm even worse than that. I'm in an eighty thousand
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: pounds vehicle right now going down the road, and that
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: on driving through Chilli Circle. Bill right now?
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Okay, are you on your age?
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: You got to see a bunch of it now. I'm
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: on my way down to Virginia to deliver sometime tomorrow.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, you be careful out there, David when
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: it brains. Things getting nasty and people don't know what
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: they're doing, and we don't need any problems out there
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: to be careful.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I just I'm I love what I knew as.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: And hope to know again as the political process. But man,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: it's just it's becoming a just a cess pool and
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: right out of the gate nastiness. We're not even done
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: with primary day. We still got what forty minutes before
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the polls close, and they're already swinging for November. I
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: was hoping for better. I can't say I expected better
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: because I know better music's playing, time for me to fly.
