The Hall of Famer said while he nearly always votes for the Democratic candidate, if he had to cast his vote now it would go to Ohio Gov. John Kasich. “And right now I’m not getting that from the Democratic party”.

John Kasich has had a hard time differentiating himself from the Republican field.

But 89 percent, 316 respondents, rated Kasich’s impact on education in Ohio as “extremely negative”.
