Ohio Sheriff Bruce Zuchowski responds to concerns about his Harris post

An Ohio County sheriff has spoken out again after asking residents to write down the addresses of homeowners who had signs in their front yards supporting Vice President Kamala Harris.

Portage County Sheriff Bruce D. Zuchowski shared a Facebook post on Tuesday saying a previous post on Sept. 13 about Harris and migrants may have been misconstrued.

“As the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of Portage County, I am sworn to protect ALL citizens of my county,” Zuchowski wrote in the social media post. “Recently, I made a post on my personal Facebook page that may have been a little misunderstood??”

Zuchowski then wrote that “as an elected sheriff,” he had a “right to the First Amendment, like all citizens.”
