Hey everyone, this is Matt Diemer, The Angry Democrat & The Angry Ohioan
It’s been a couple weeks since I’ve gone live, and I wanted to jump on and walk through everything I’ve been working on. I’ve been putting out a mix of articles, candidate interviews, and some ideas that got both support and pushback, which is exactly what I want.
This week I’m breaking down a handful of those pieces, talking through what I actually meant, and giving more context behind them. Some of this is national, some of it is local to Cuyahoga County, and some of it is what I’ve learned from sitting down with candidates directly.
If you’ve read the articles, this gives you more color. If you haven’t, this is a good way to jump into the parts that matter most to you.
Below are timestamps so you can jump to each section.
