Fair Districts-Fair Democracy Huddle on the influence of money on Ohio elections
This Huddle will focus on the tsunami of attack ads and the money spent on advertising during this election by candidates as well as dark money groups. The panel includes Statehouse reporters and a campaign finance researcher and expert!
Panelists:
- Morgan Trau, Statehouse reporter WEWS
- Evan Vorpahl, True North Research
- Jake Zuckerman, State politics and policy reporter Signal Ohio
Morgan recently found herself at the center of extremely negative and untruthful ads. Jake and his colleague Andrew Tobias have been writing about the millions spent on political ads during this election cycle. Evan has been closely tracking dark money in Ohio elections. Check out this podcast with Evan focused on dark money in the last Ohio Supreme Court races!
This is an opportunity to step back and explore who is funding all of these toxic ads and consider the best way to shine a light on dark money in the future.
