Today, after getting past an extremely messy primary because the front runner dropped out, Derek Merrin lost his challenge in Ohio’s Ninth Congressional District.
“Whether it is the Ohio State House or the campaign trail, Derek Merrin brings chaos wherever he goes, and voters are sick of it,” said American Bridge 21st Century spokesperson Monica Venzke. “His extreme anti-choice and anti-labor agenda was a huge flop, just like him. American Bridge is proud to have helped voters see the real Derek Merrin — and it comes as no surprise that they weren’t interested.”
