The Seal of Approval: The Nomination Fight of Naso and Innamorato
Prologue:
Mike Naso, born and raised in Ohio, worked his way up from being the son of a police officer father and banker mother, to becoming one of the leading contenders for the Republican nomination. He was an average student who went onto attend Ohio State, where he majored in economics. Following graduation he was decided against attending law school, and instead landed a job in Sen. Rob Portman's office. He remained there until he began working on the successful Presidential Campaign of Marco Rubio.
He landed a job in the White House with the Communication team, and created quite the name for himself by appearing on all the necessary talks shows, promoting the Administration and attacking Democrats. He became Press. Secretary and served in it throughout the first term. He then left in 2022 to run for the open senate seat vacated by retiring sen. Rob Portman.
He faced popular Democratic Governor Bobby Jameson and trailed him throughout most the campaign, but a knockout debate performance where Naso charged Jameson for thinking he was "Entitled to the senate seat. I know that is the Democratic way of thinking that this is a entitlement society, but that's not my America, that's not the America the people of Ohio know. We believe in opportunity and hard work, not entitlement and laziness."
That line sealed the deal and Naso turned a five point lead by Jameson into a ten point win for Naso.
