Democrats want Jerry Springer to run for Ohio governor quoting : "HotAir"

Top Ohio Democrats are reportedly pressuring TV host Jerry Springer to launch a bid for Ohio governor in 2018.

"What's probably giving it more juice this time is the Trump victory," Springer said in February about rumors that he's returning to politics.
