Bernie Radio Ad in Ohio

I live in the Dayton, Ohio area and we have a 80s and 90's country Radio Station in town. Their airwaves have been filled with local republican primary candidates ad for the last month. Today I was driving to the store and was jamming out to some Vince Gill and next thing I know I heard Bernies voice. I was so confused as if the radio channel had switched. But no, he is playing and ad a minute long talking about the banks and how free trade has hurt jobs!!! I'm damn impressed because not a channel a Democrat would target but it's the blue collar workers who vote against their own interests that listen. I have a good feeling about Ohio as long as he is close in Michigan!!

This, despite Sanders' pride in being vilified by fossil fuel CEOs.

Is you walk in and they ask everyone what party ballot you want. With our Secretary of State nothing would surprise me though
