SUMMARY: What do Americans think about Washington politics and productivity over the last two years? Across the political spectrum, one thing that many seem to agree on is that both parties share blame for dysfunction and stasis. Judy Woodruff talks to voters in Columbus, Ohio, about their hopes for the new Congress.
JUDY WOODRUFF (NewsHour): Well, now that the President and congressional leaders are getting down to business, we thought it was a good time to check in with voters about what they expect from Washington right now.
We picked a Midwestern state you hear a lot about in presidential election years.
GOV. JOHN KASICH, (R) Ohio: I, John Richard Kasich…
JUDY WOODRUFF: We showed in Ohio on the same day Republican Governor John Kasich was being inaugurated for a second term and, for football fans, arguably an even bigger event, as Ohio State University’s beloved Buckeyes were about to face Oregon in the college playoff championship.
Despite this, we still found people across the political spectrum who were willing to talk to us.
