Gina Collinsworth, Republican candidate for State Representative in the  90th Ohio House District, announced support for her conservative credentials from Congressman Jim Jordan (R-Urbana), Republican State Senator Terry Johnson (R-McDermott), and Rep. Adam Bird (R New Richmond). The 90th District includes all of Scioto and Adams Counties and portions of Brown  County.  

Congressman Jim Jordan offered the following statement: 

“Gina Collinsworth’s proven track record of standing up for our constitutional rights and advocating for our conservative principles sets her apart as a true conservative leader. We need strong conservatives like Gina  Collinsworth fighting for us!”

Senator Terry Johnson previously served as the state representative for this district and has been serving as our state senator since 2019. Senator Johnson is a retired physician, medical educator, and retired military officer, and has a proven, powerful record as a champion for southern Ohio. He continues to be a trusted voice in the Ohio General Assembly for the values of working-class families and our faith community. He sets the bar for what a conservative leader needs to be.  

Senator Terry Johnson praised Gina’s leadership with the following statement: 

“I know Gina personally. She is a good Christian who wants in her deepest heart to do good things for the citizens of the 90th District, for Ohio, and America. Like me, she knows that change for our families struggling with the terrible pressures of skyrocketing prices, declining faith in both God and the leadership of our nation,  and the need to protect children from the grips of evil people who mean to do them harm, must take place from  

the ground up. It starts here at home, and we need good, honest, servant-hearted people like Gina to help us turn the tide and set things right. I know that she is a wonderful person and I have great confidence in her. I  pray that you will join me, my wife Jennifer, and our family in supporting her. I am asking you to vote for Gina  in this crucial election for the heart and soul of our nation.”

Representative Bird was first elected to the Ohio House in 2020, representing the western portion of  Brown County and a portion of Clermont County. He previously served as an educator, principal,  and school superintendent.  

Rep. Adam Bird offered the following statement supporting Gina Collinsworth: 

“In a political landscape that demands integrity and conviction, Gina Collinsworth stands out as a beacon of principled leadership, working vigorously to advance the causes that resonate with the people of Southern Ohio. Her tireless commitment to limited government and steadfast advocacy for the principles that matter most to  our constituents will make her a strong and reliable representative.” 

This is the latest in a series of endorsements for Gina Collinsworth. She has also been endorsed by the  Brown County Republican Party, the Scioto County Republican Club, the Ohio Chamber of  Commerce, Ohio Value Voters, Sheet Metal Workers Local 33, Americans for Prosperity Ohio, and many local elected officials and community leaders. She has also earned the highest possible rating from the Buckeye Firearms Association.

“I am proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with our conservative champions Congressman Jim  Jordan and my friends Senator Terry Johnson and Representative Adam Bird,” said Gina  Collinsworth. “Each of these men have consistently demonstrated unwavering dedication to  upholding conservative values and their support for the conservative cause is remarkable.” 

More details about Gina’s candidacy can be found at www.CollinsworthForOhio.com. Early voting has started for the Republican Primary, which will be held on March 19, 2024.
