Ohio Lawmaker Becomes First 'Triple Flipper'

And that leads us to State Representative Randy Gardner. His election to an Ohio Senate seat this week has earned him the self-proclaimed title of Ohio’s first “triple flipper.” He explains in this interview with statehouse correspondent Bill Cohen.

Despite term limits for lawmakers in the Ohio Constitution, his career as a legislator stretches over parts of four decades -- and has just been extended another four years.

Nick Castele was a senior reporter covering politics and government for Ideastream Public Media. He worked as a reporter for Ideastream from 2012-2022.
