Lenny Wirz-Pleasant Hill
Ed McCord-Covington
Kris Lee-Piqua
Robin Oda-Troy
Joseph Gibson-Tipp City
Patricia Neisley-Ludlow Falls

Along with the mayors are all of the council members and city commissioners.
Miami County Commissioners:
Gregory Simmons
Ted Mercer
Wade Westfall
State and federal reps:

Why are they not pushing vaccinations? Many of them have either been negative towards vaccines, masks, etc. or they have said nothing.
Your job is to protect the residents of this county, so do your job.
Four out of 10 people vaccinated in Miami County is ridiculous.
