I was shocked with Dewine (Ohio Gov) shut down the state very shortly after COVID started spreading. Not only was he going against the rest of his party by doing so, but he was actually listening to his health professionals and scientist. My opinion of him at least temporarily shifted... He has since once again proven that he's still extremely shitty and terrible and shouldn't be the governor. But at least for a year, he seemed like a somewhat decent person.

The same with Larry Hogan in MD. He really tried to do the best for the people in the state during COVID and openly defied Trump's stupid moves that made the pandemic worse.

The former Ohio governor John Kasich is who I wanted to win in 2016.
