ICYMI: Eric Conroy Compares Democrats to Terrorists

May 29, 2026

COLUMBUS, OH - Newly unearthed video is shining a light on what Republican candidate for Congress Eric Conroy actually thinks of Ohio voters who don't share his political beliefs - with Conroy comparing them to terrorists. Conroy's comments saying, "sometimes, terrorists are easier to talk to than Democrats," come at a time when division, dangerous rhetoric, and political violence have become all too common in American politics.

"Eric Conroy should apologize to the Ohioans he's comparing to terrorists," said Ohio Democratic Party Communications Director Marisa Nahem. "Conroy is proving every day that he only cares about Ohioans if they support him. Ohioans want leaders who will put the people they serve above partisan politics, not extremist politicians who would just be a rubber stamp for the policies that are devastating Ohio families of all political backgrounds, like Washington Republicans' dangerous healthcare cuts that are ripping care away from Ohio families, their devastating tariffs that are hurting Ohio small businesses, and their reckless war with Iran that is sky-rocketing Ohioans' gas prices."
