Innovation Ohio staffer Rachel Coyle went on a road trip around the state to learn more about what’s on the hearts and minds of rural voters!
She visited rural counties to experience local culture (and local food!), promote early voting, and hear from members of each community:

Rural voices and rural votes can shape the future of our state — especially this year.
Early Vote among rural Ohioans is currently outpacing 2018:
Make sure you’re speaking with the rural Ohioans you love. Together, we can lift up the great work being done by President Biden and Democrats in Congress to lower costs and improve quality of life throughout Ohio!
If you live in rural Ohio, we’d love to tell Ohioans why you’re voting this year! Just email a short video (15-30 seconds is perfect) to info@InnovationOhio.org
