Speaker 1: It is eight forty seven I fifty five Krsit talks
Speaker 1: station of course, election that was yesterday, even though nobody
Speaker 1: showed up. City of Cincinnati's got a population of a
Speaker 1: little north of three hundred thousand people and only about
Speaker 1: twenty one thousand people even got up to vote. That's
Speaker 1: kind of disturbing. Welcome back to the fifty five Cassey
Speaker 1: Morning Show. Came in number two. He's in a runoff
Speaker 1: with aftab par Ball. Corey Bowman, Good to have you
Speaker 1: back on the show.
Speaker 2: Good more and Brian, how you doing.
Speaker 1: I'm doing fine. I'm just a little I obviously was
Speaker 1: hoping for better numbers for you, and it's an odd thing.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you saw the article in the Cincinni Inquire
Speaker 1: or Hyde Park. They actually had more than ten percent
Speaker 1: show up. They had fifteen percent, and they interviewed one
Speaker 1: lady who said, even though she's pissed off at aftab
Speaker 1: par Ball in council, she still voted for him against
Speaker 1: her best interest. She just will not vote for a
Speaker 1: Republican period. End of story. I don't understand that. It's
Speaker 1: you know, the city's been running to the ground last
Speaker 1: forty years. What are the Democrats actually done for the
Speaker 1: people of the city of Cincinnati, generally speaking, and they
Speaker 1: keep going back to the wall. It's the definition is
Speaker 1: stupid doing the same thing over and over again and
Speaker 1: expecting a different outcome. Corey, your reaction to the outcome,
Speaker 1: and I suppose you can hit the ground running with
Speaker 1: the with the campaign between now and November.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, first I want to know, thank every single
Speaker 2: person that actually did get out and vote. You know,
Speaker 2: I know a lot of times we're going to focus
Speaker 2: on who didn't show up, but let's focus on the
Speaker 2: people that did show up and got out and voted
Speaker 2: for the first Republican nominees that's hit the city in
Speaker 2: the last fifteen sixteen years. And so I see that
Speaker 2: as accomplishment in itself. And yeah, it might have been
Speaker 2: a low turnout about ten percent, but ever since we
Speaker 2: first started this, you know, we had about two and
Speaker 2: a half weeks to get over five hundred signatures to
Speaker 2: get on the ballot. I look as we had about
Speaker 2: two and a half months to get the votes that
Speaker 2: we got, and so that's giving us an opportunity the
Speaker 2: next seven months to hit the ground running to advance
Speaker 2: in this stent.
Speaker 1: Well, and I wish you all the best as you
Speaker 1: do that. I guess you have a You're going to
Speaker 1: have a lot of outreach to do. Do you plan
Speaker 1: on going to all the neighborhoods in the city of
Speaker 1: Cincinnati between now November?
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you have to. Yeah, we are. Our job
Speaker 2: the next seven months is we've been put in a
Speaker 2: position to be able to convince people that we're the
Speaker 2: right candidate for mayor of Cincinnati, and so over the
Speaker 2: course of the last two and a half months, we've
Speaker 2: been able to reach certain amounts of people, and we've
Speaker 2: been able to do the best with what we have,
Speaker 2: and I'm very happy with what we've been able to accomplish.
Speaker 2: But like many people text me this morning, like I've
Speaker 2: texted many other people, the work has just started. And
Speaker 2: so we hit the ground running starting today all the
Speaker 2: way to November, and we're excited.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you are. Given the lopsided nature of the vote,
Speaker 1: I guess pur of all got eighty three percent. You
Speaker 1: came in at thirteen. A lot of people might have
Speaker 1: said they had the wind taken out of their sales,
Speaker 1: but I still have to go back to the number
Speaker 1: of voters that showed up. I mean, twenty one thousand
Speaker 1: people determined the destiny of the city the Cincinnati, at
Speaker 1: least in terms of who the candidates are. You worry
Speaker 1: about that in the fall, like getting people off the
Speaker 1: couch and getting them out to vote. There's nothing doesn't
Speaker 1: There's a lot of criticism loving against the Hamilton County
Speaker 1: Republican Party generally speaking, I'd like to think that they
Speaker 1: would really engage in an effort to get people out
Speaker 1: to the polls in the city. I know they view that,
Speaker 1: you know, it's like bring the flag out, we're all
Speaker 1: done in the city. But there's a lot of work
Speaker 1: and a lot of effort that they could step up
Speaker 1: with the plate and provide you before we get to
Speaker 1: November in the election day.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I believe that we're going to see that. You know,
Speaker 2: like I said, we haven't had a nominee in over
Speaker 2: fifteen years, and I believe that not only is this important,
Speaker 2: but over the course of the summer and fall, we
Speaker 2: have to put strong people forward to run for council
Speaker 2: as well. And so this is a very big ship
Speaker 2: that we're going to turn on a very small rudder,
Speaker 2: and so every step of the way matters. Every vote
Speaker 2: counts every single poll worker that I saw yesterday. Those
Speaker 2: are vital to the election process, and we're very thankful
Speaker 2: for every everything that has happened so far. But yeah,
Speaker 2: what if I would talk to any Republican in the city,
Speaker 2: if I would talk to anybody night, even Republican, but
Speaker 2: anybody that's just fed up with the city. Next seven months,
Speaker 2: we're not going to be running on a candidate. We're
Speaker 2: going to be running on city issues. And I think
Speaker 2: that's what's going to turn people out the vote. Is
Speaker 2: if we can convince people and get people to know
Speaker 2: where we stand on these vital issues for our city
Speaker 2: and know that we're going to have policies, we're going
Speaker 2: to have actions from day one in place that are
Speaker 2: going to benefit the citizens of our city. Well, then
Speaker 2: we're going to turn out more vote in November.
Speaker 1: And I know Corey where you are on the issues,
Speaker 1: and they're all just very grounded in common sense, logic
Speaker 1: and reason. You know, efforts that will benefit all of
Speaker 1: the residents in all of the communities. There's really nothing
Speaker 1: divisive about your message. This isn't like you know, something
Speaker 1: like abortion, like oh my god, that you know, the
Speaker 1: the polar opposite sides of the equation. You got your
Speaker 1: pro livers and you've got your pro abortion folks. You're
Speaker 1: never going to reconcile those and divisive issue nothing. What
Speaker 1: you have run on talked about what you want to
Speaker 1: accomplish for the city is like even I would argue political.
Speaker 3: No, well, I think that what we got to do,
Speaker 3: because you can't see this at like let's say, if
Speaker 3: we're speaking on who got the most votes yesterday, well
Speaker 3: you if you actually have a heart for the city
Speaker 3: and local government, you can't see that as a definite
Speaker 3: win when only ten percent of voters showed up. And
Speaker 3: so what we have to see it as is we
Speaker 3: have to give the ninety percent of voters that didn't
Speaker 3: show up today yesterday, We've got to give them a
Speaker 3: reason to get out in November. And that's what we're
Speaker 3: going to be working our rear ends off the next
Speaker 3: seven months to show people on these issues that it's
Speaker 3: going to be worth getting out the vote, to letting
Speaker 3: them know what the dates are, letting them know where
Speaker 3: the polling locations are. But then honestly too is having
Speaker 3: those interactions with people to let them know that we're
Speaker 3: the right candidate for the job, and so I haven't
Speaker 3: lost any hope. I know that there's a lot of
Speaker 3: people that might have the win down of their sales,
Speaker 3: but if anybody's listened to me, I'm telling you, we
Speaker 3: are more motivated than ever before.
Speaker 2: And this was just a next step. Like I said,
Speaker 2: we had two and a half weeks to get five
Speaker 2: hundred signatures.
Speaker 3: We got them.
Speaker 2: We had two and a half months to go in
Speaker 2: second place to be able to get on the bout
Speaker 2: in November.
Speaker 3: We got it.
Speaker 2: And so every step of the way, we're going to
Speaker 2: see milestone after milestone every month, and we're going to
Speaker 2: fight this thing to be able to see a great
Speaker 2: turnout in November.
Speaker 1: I appreciate your optimism and enthusiasm, getting people ginned up
Speaker 1: and not throwing the towel. That's what it's all about.

Speaker 1: overturned along the over overtime, Corey Bowman, it's been great
Speaker 1: having you on. Congratulations. I'm happy as I can be
