The “Confidence in Ohio Republican Leadership” poll

Are our Republican Leaders competent? Do they make unprincipled decisions that are not reflective of Ohio's Republicans? Will the State Central Committee allow the party to fall victim to the Blue 22 that called them "dips hits" and abscond with millions of Republican Donors dollars with absolutely no consequences?
