Joe Blystone - what is his real story?
He seems to be the darling of the Trumpers in the Ohio Governor's race. I found this timeline today: https://joeblystonefacts.com/
So, it doesn't seem like he is a "self-made" man. It seems like he divorced his first wife, and then within a year, married a widow, 20 years his senior that owned a farm. She and Blystone changed the deed just before she died. He acquires his 2nd wife's family farm. He then turned around and married his third wife two years later.
Does anyone live around Canal Winchester and know the real Joe Blystone story? What do the families of the 1st and 2nd wives think about him?
= new reply since forum marked as read
and I checked their social media and only one is connected with him..and she’s one of the most liberal women I know..so..I got nothin.
