PAINESVILLE, Ohio - If you missed Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney no fears. He is making yet another stop in northeast Ohio this coming Friday.
Romney will be at Lake Erie College in Painesville, located at 391 West Washington Street. Doors open about at 12:30 p.m. and the event is expected to begin at 2:30 p.m. It is open to the public but you will need to get tickets.
In fact, you can get as many as eight tickets when you register at romneypainesville.eventbrite.com . The registration will require all the names, addresses and emails of the people that are going with you to the rally. If you're attending, think the airport as you go through security.
The website states, "All attendees will go through airport-like security and should bring as few personal items as possible. No bags, sharp objects, umbrellas, liquids, or signs will be allowed in the venue. Cameras are permitted."
Romney will be solo for this event as his VP choice Paul Ryan will be in Harrisburg Virginia, with a rally starting around the same time.
If your wondering why so many visits to the buckeye state? No Republican has won the presidency without Ohio. The state currently holds 18 electoral votes. Without Ohio, the math to the 270 electoral votes you need to become president gets really complicated.
