1. It looks like you got there earlier than I did.

I got there about 4:00 and stayed until 5:00. The band from Oberlin said they would be playing until 5:30. The estimate of the crowd earlier in the day was about 20,000.

I heard there is to be another demonstration from 4-6:00pm at the Statehouse.





























The next generation.





Courtney Johnson talks about the value of education and the need for
good teachers. She lead the croud with the chear, "Stand and Fight".





The Jazz band from Oberlin.


There are a few more photos on the Stand Up for Ohio facebook page.

2. Too bad about those that

voted Republican. Strickland really could have been re-elected otherwise. Of course if I listened to Fox News and Rush Limbaugh I would probably believe that Democrats are a scourge.
