U.S. Senate candidate Dolan is ‘problem solver,’ says former AG Betty Montgomery

Former Ohio Attorney General Betty Montgomery on Friday contrasted state Sen. Matt Dolan, R-Chagrin Falls, with some of his Republican opponents in his primary campaign for U.S. Senate during an appearance with Dolan in Centerville.

“I’m supporting Matt because he’s the only one in the race who is a problem-solver. He cares more about solutions than headlines,” Montgomery said in comments before Dolan’s law enforcement roundtable with about a dozen police chiefs and city officials from Bellbrook, Centerville and Miamisburg at The Golf Club at Yankee Trace.

“We don’t need any more rhetoric and bump bellies and see who’s the toughest,” she said. “We need somebody who knows how to listen. I think you’ll see today that he’s a listener and then he translate it into action.”

On March 18 two of Dolan’s opponents, businessman Mike Gibbons and former state treasurer Josh Mandel, got into a shouting match at a debate, standing face to face, until they were finally separated by the moderator.
