Kasich Said Voters Sent Republicans a Message

Gov. John Kasich (R) told CBS News that Ohio voters who cast so many votes for Democrat Danny O’Connor in a solidly Republican district were “sending a message to the Republicans to knock it off.”

Said Kasich: “Stop the chaos, the division, no more of this family separation that we see at the border or taking people’s healthcare away. I think that have — basically have had enough and they’re sending a message to the Republicans, including the Republican in the White House.”

He added: “This district is so Republican, there should never even have been an election here. And it was so close and — in one of the counties that’s so solidly Republican — where a Republican would normally win by 70 percent, it broke basically 50-50.”
