Connie Pillich

Connie Pillich was the Democratic candidate for the 28th Ohio House District, an area that includes the northern suburbs of Cincinnati. Connie is a general practice attorney representing families, small businesses and consumers. The 28th District was a tier-one pickup opportunity located in an emerging demographic targeted region. Connie's opponent, a three-term Republican, was appointed to a state office by the Governor and the Republicans have not yet indentified a replacement. This district was a must-win if Democrats are to have a shot at the four-seat pickup in the Ohio House. Connie actively canvassed from April on, knocking-on more than 2,000 doors. She was endorsed by many of our progressive allies in the state including IBEW, Ohio AFL-CIO and the Ohio Federation of Teachers. Connie was a first-rate candidate, a committed progressive, a tough campaigner, and won this race.
