Kasich signs water notification bill in Columbiana, refuses to endorse Trump

COLUMBIANA

Gov. John Kasich isn’t ready to endorse Donald Trump for president, and indicated that’s not going to change unless the presumptive Republican nominee makes significant adjustments in his campaign style.

“I have to see a big change in him,” Kasich said today in Columbiana in response to a question about Trump from The Vindicator. “He has to have a whole different message about unity and uplifting people, and we’ll see what happens here. But it certainly is not trending the right way.”

Kasich, a failed Republican presidential candidate, told Fox News earlier Thursday that he spoke to Trump about two weeks ago. Kasich said the two have different visions, value systems and objectives.

Kasich was at South Side Middle School in Columbiana to sign a bill into law requiring quicker public notice of lead contamination in drinking water.

The law increases requirements for testing for and notification of lead in water from public works.
