President Obama was back
in the Buckeye State Friday. His third and final stop
of the day was in Lima,
where he spoke to a crowd of almost 4,000 people.
Lima sits in Allen County.
In 2008, President Obama lost the county. With four days to go until Election
Day, he urged supporters to vote for his re-election and to vote early.
The president took the
stage inside the Lima
Senior High School gym in
front of nearly 4,000 supporters and surrounded by signs that say ‘Vote Early.'
Former Ohio Governor Ted
Strickland also spoke to the crowd. He reminded voters that no Republican has
ever won the presidency without Ohio.
"This state is the
firewall," he said. "This state will give Obama a second term."
