In respone to this morning’s news regarding local developer Jeff Jacob’s plan to oppose Ohio’s latest bid for casinos in the state (Issue 3), Jeff Blanchard officially announced his candidacy for the Mayor of the City of Cleveland.

Mr. Blanchard’s sole platform is to rally support for Issue 3 and get all sides working together, then when accomplished, will step down and allow a “lieutenant mayor” to take over.

Unfortunately, due to Cuyahoga County Board of Election rules, Mr. Blanchard has missed the candidacy filing deadlines… so he will need to be a Write-In Candidate.

Residents of the City of Cleveland are encouraged to write-in a Vote for Jeff in the General Election on Tuesday, November 3rd.

The WNCX Morning Show with Miller, Mihalik and Mike, caught up with Dennis Haysbert today. Dennis currently plays the part of Jonas Blane, on the CBS TV series, “The Unit”. Dennis is best known for his portrayal of President David Palmer on the FOX series “24”. However, most Clevelanders will better remember him for his part in Major League as Pedro Cerrano or in Allstate commercials. Dennis called in to promote the season premier of The Unit, this Sunday on CBS 19 at 10PM, as well as his connection to Presidential candidate, Barack Obama.
