Ohio Democrat uses TikTok alter ego to troll her opponent in Ohio House race

Democrat Amy Cox created an alter-ego character on TikTok to troll her opponent, incumbent state Rep. Rodney Creech, in a key Ohio House race.

Wearing a curly wig, false mustache and aviator sunglasses, Cody Cox leans into the cell phone camera and drawls "I got a message for all those drinkin' hater-aide on the Internet: Have you seen this district? It's solid red. You ain't got a damn thing to worry about. Unless of course you're worried about them women out there that might want to know what Rodney Creeps' view is on women making their own choices in life."

Creech defeated Cox in the election for the seat two years ago, 54-46%.

Now the two are facing off again in a rematch for the 43rd Ohio House district north and west of Dayton. The district, which covers Preble County and parts of Montgomery County, used to be one of the most competitive legislative districts in the state.

Cox, a public school teacher, stays in character when describing hardscrabble female voters at the Preble County Fair.
