Ohio Political Science Professor Available to Discuss Unemployment Rates, Election Ramifications in Swing State

Newswise — Ohio's jobless rate in April was 7.4 percent, more than a full percentage point below the 8.8 percent of April 2011. A Quinnipiac University poll released earlier this month showed President Obama in a virtual tie with presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney in the state.

Dr. Melissa Miller, an associate professor of political science at Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio, is available to discuss the political ramifications of falling unemployment numbers in this vital swing state.
