You First: Ohio Republicans And Democrats Talk 2018 Midterms

Republican panelists discuss young voters' issues in the Sound of Ideas studio.

As part of our You First! election initiative, ideastream wants to know what issues matter to you in this midterm election.

We put that question to two panels recently on either side of the political aisle, with a particular focus on topics that matter to younger voters. You can watch both videos below.

And please let us know about the issues motivating your vote this November. Email  youfirst@ideastream.org, call (216) 352-1315 or follow the link here to ideastream's voter survey

Below, hear from Eric Moorer of the Northeast Ohio Young Black Democrats, Diane Morgan of the Cuyahoga County Progressive Caucus and Lakewood City Council President Sam O'Leary.

We also spoke with Anthony Alto, Republican Party of Cuyahoga County executive director Rebecca Armstrong and Colin Jackson of Americans For Prosperity Ohio.
