Description | CINCINNATI -- Now that Rep. Rob Portman of Cincinnati has assumed the Cabinet post of U.S. trade representative, the list of candidates for his Second District congressional seat is growing. But there is concern that one of the better-known contenders may have gone too far in reminding voters of his accomplishments.
The problem isn't just with TV and radio advertisements. In a flier, Bob McEwen calls himself "congressman" seven times. McEwen was a congressman at one time, so is the flier misleading?
In ads, McEwen doesn't introduce himself as a congressman, but in one TV ad, the title of congressman precedes his name twice, News 5's Bina Roy reported. |
