“Our members support the candidates who support small businesses,” NFIB State Executive Director Roger Geiger said. “These candidates either have a strong and consistent record of supporting small businesses in the General Assembly or have shown our members that they’re committed to maintaining an environment that encourages small businesses to grow and create jobs.”

Early voting will run from Oct. 12 to Nov. 7. Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 8.

The NFIB Ohio PAC’s endorsement is important to these campaigns. Small business owners and their employees vote in large numbers and are known for actively recruiting friends, family members, and acquaintances to go to the polls. NFIB’s political support is based on the candidates’ positions and records on key small-business issues.
