<ul>
<li>
<strong>Bruce Winges</strong>, Editor, Akron Beacon Journal</li>
<li>
<strong>David Daley</strong>, National political writer, senior fellow for FairVote</li>
<li>
<strong>Catherine Turcer</strong>, Director, Common Cause Ohio, and Co-leader of Fair Districts Ohio</li>
<li>
<strong>Vernon Sykes</strong>, Ohio State Senator, 28th District </li>
</ul>
<p><strong>After the event</strong>, join our National Field Director, Senior Counsel, and Deputy Political Director for a drink, at The Lockview, to learn how you can get involved in the new Represent Ohio chapter's organizing efforts. We’ll introduce you to our new Represent Ohio Organizer!</p>
