Hamilton County sheriff endorses Blackwell

Hamilton County Sheriff Simon Leis today endorsed Ken Blackwell for governor, going with the Republican candidate from Cincinnati.

“Sheriff Leis has fought to protect Hamilton County families for years as sheriff, and I know he shares the values we need to help all Ohio families build strong, vibrant communities,” Blackwell said. “He is a great addition to my campaign team.”

“Ken is the strongest gubernatorial candidate left who is pro-law enforcement,” Leis said. “As governor, Ken will be a key supporter of law enforcement, a critical need for our entire state. Ken has been a friend of law enforcement for years and I know we can trust him to keep his word.”

Leis has served as Hamilton County Sheriff since 1987, winning re-election to the post in 1988, 1992, 1996, 2000 and 2004.

Interesting that the Heimlich/Leis rift has widen even further. As the Ham. Co. Petro guy and the law & order guy he couldn't even secure an endorsement in his own backyards.
