NO/CLICK
State Rep Gary Click
FAILED

Sandusky + Seneca Counties

GARY CLICKHAD YEARS.WHAT CHANGED?

Press releases don't stop landfill odors. Hearings don't protect property values. Promises don't lower taxes. We DESERVE results—not just talk.

Gary Click Talks. Our Communities Deal With The Consequences.

Grandstanding politicians like Gary Click love press conferences and social media attention. But families in Sandusky and Seneca Counties are still dealing with the same problems—year after year.

Landfill facility

The Landfill Fight: Still Not Solved

Years of promises • Still fighting

Gary Click has spoken against the Sunny Farms landfill. He's held hearings. Written letters. Made statements. But the landfill fight has dragged on for years—and families are still dealing with odor, truck traffic, and uncertainty.

At some point, voters deserve results—not excuses.

If your representative can't stop it, what good is the outrage?

CAFO facility

CAFO Fight: Local People Ignored

Ongoing

When a massive poultry operation was proposed, neighbors mobilized—worried about odors, water contamination, and property values. Would you accept this next to your home?

These aren't environmental activists. They're property owners fighting decisions made far away. Who gets a say—local families or corporate lawyers?

Why were residents left scrambling after plans were already moving?

Data center facility

Data Centers: We Get The Downside

2024–2025

Data center projects are sweeping Northwest Ohio—turning farmland into industrial zones. Packed township meetings. Angry residents. Concerns about:

  • Utility strain — will your electric rates go up to pay for their grid upgrades?
  • Water use — massive consumption with little transparency
  • Tax breaks — years of abatements while homeowners foot the bill
  • Few jobs — automated facilities don't help local employment

Big corporations get tax breaks. Homeowners get the risk. Our communities are next.

Property tax relief

Property Tax "Relief"

2025 — Still waiting

Gary Click introduced property tax bills in 2025. Good headlines. But when it came time to support the plan to abolish Ohio property taxes—real, bold reform that would actually help homeowners—Click didn't sign on.

He'll talk about small tweaks, but won't back the plan that would end property taxes for good.

  • Will his bills even pass?
  • When do homeowners actually see relief?
  • Why won't he support abolishing property taxes entirely?

our communities need real relief now—not half-measures and press releases.

Where Was Gary Click?

While Gary Click blabs on social media and chases media attention, our communities' roads, water, and property values get left behind.

Focused on Columbus, Not the District

Gary Click is best known for statewide culture-war fights—like the SAFE Act and HB 68. National headlines. Cable TV appearances. Great... for him.

But when's the last time you saw him deliver tangible results on landfills, water quality, or corporate giveaways in your backyard?

⚠️

Regulatory Failure

Conservatives hate when corporations and bureaucrats run roughshod over communities. Yet under Click's watch:

  • Landfill expansions keep moving forward
  • CAFOs move through the process without real local input
  • Data centers cut deals with the state while ratepayers get the bill

If he can't stop bad actors, why is he there?

💸

Who Pays? You Do.

When corporations get tax abatements and utility upgrades, someone pays. Usually: homeowners, small businesses, and school districts.

Gary Click hasn't fought to make developers pay their fair share or protect local budgets.

🚫

No Local Veto

Communities should have the power to say NO to projects that threaten their land, water, and property values.

Gary Click hasn't delivered real local control—just listening sessions and letters.

Eric Watson: A Conservative Who Gets It

Eric Watson is talking about what voters here are actually dealing with: property taxes, land use, and local authority.

Gary Click

Click's Record

  • Local control: Years of talk, little delivered
  • Landfill/CAFO enforcement: Fights drag on with no resolution
  • Tax policy: Introduced small bills, but won't sign onto the plan to abolish property taxes
  • Data centers: No action to protect communities from bad deals
  • Priorities: More visible on statewide culture issues than district problems
Eric Watson

Watson's Plan

  • Local control: Real veto power for communities
  • Land/water enforcement: Accountability and monitoring with teeth
  • Tax policy: Supports abolishing property taxes—real relief, not half-measures
  • Data centers: Local control rules!
  • Priorities: District-first, Columbus second
