Democrat, who was one of the largest bundlers for Obama. We've attended many of her events, most recently for Josh Turek, Adam Schiff, Cory Booker, and my favorite, Jamie Raskin. Many more in past years, such as Nancy Pelosi, Mark Kelly, and Pete Buttigieg.

The Sherrod Brown you see on the TV is the same one we met and listend to, he's very down to earth. He repeated that he never intended to run again, but considering the current administration he feels it's his duty to do so.
