Pamela Hashem, along with panelists Mark Weaver, Derrick Clay and Greg Haas will participate in a discussion of Ohio’s historic role in the 2008 Presidential election. Sponsored by the Ohio Historical Society, the open discussion will be held at the OHS Auditorium on Thursday, September 18. There’s an old saying: “As Ohio goes, so goes the nation.” History instructs us that whichever presidential candidate carries Ohio will almost surely win the White House. Who will carry Ohio – political bellwether and “Mother of Presidents” – in 2008? Control of the Ohio House of Representatives and several Ohio congressional races also help make 2008 an interesting political year.
PRH Consulting Group joined the RNC and the NRCC for a “Congressional Trust 2008” event in Cleveland, Ohio. This intimate reception with Republican Leader John Boehner helped generate nearly $600,000 for Republican Congressional races in Ohio and around the country. “Congressional Trust 2008” is a joint committee of the Republican National Committee and the National Republican Congressional Committee. It allows the RNC and the NRCC to fund such activities as direct contributions and coordinated expenditures for Republican House candidates in targeted races across the country.
PRH Consulting Group will organize and implement the corporate fundraising strategy for the Citizens for a Clean Ohio ballot initiative. The renewal of Clean Ohio would authorize the issuance of $400 million in bonds to help ensure a quality life for all Ohioans by redeveloping urban areas to foster economic growth, preserving natural areas and farmland, and protecting our waterways.
