Gibbs Officially Named Republican Nominee

Congratulates Dailey on an honorable campaign

 

Lakeville, OH – Senator Bob Gibbs (R-Lakeville), candidate for Congress in Ohio’s 18th Congressional District, announced today that the recount of all sixteen counties has been completed and he is now officially the Republican nominee for Congress.  Gibbs will face Congressman Zack Space in the November election.

 

“Fred Dailey ran an excellent campaign and he remains a friend of mine,” said Gibbs of his primary opponent.  “He always kept everything above board and honest, and I am proud to have his endorsement to beat Zack Space in the fall.”

Gibbs now is able to turn his efforts toward Zack Space and the November contest that will be one of the premier congressional races in the country. Gibbs wasted no time reminding all of the voters of the 18th Congressional District what their Congressman has been up to in Washington, D.C.

 

“Zack Space has lost his way,” said Gibbs.  “The most important issue on the minds of families in this district is jobs, and Zack continually votes to put tens of thousands of our region’s workers in the unemployment line. Zack’s cap and trade vote is putting 40,000 coal and coal related jobs at risk and that is unacceptable.”

 

Gibbs also made reference to Zack’s vote for a failed stimulus package as well as his countless votes to add trillions to the federal deficit. 

 

“We need to get people back to work,” commented Gibbs. “It is time for the voters to send a message to Zack Space and tell him it is not ok to continue voting over 93% of the time with Nancy Pelosi while our workers suffer.”
