Akron area senator Frank LaRose (R) has a reputation nationwide as an advance man. He’s helped carry out campaign events and rallies for several presidential candidates such as John McCain and John Kasich.
For the inauguration, LaRose was asked to make sure everything was in order at Blair House, where the Trumps stayed before moving into the White House.
LaRose says he’s honored to be working a presidential inauguration.

LaRose said he had a lot of work to do but did end up interacting with the Trump family for a little bit as well.
