An intimate look at the personal impacts of the political life, “Swing State” follows a family’s journey through one the most important races in the history of American politics: the 2006 Ohio Governor’s race. Seen through the eyes of a candidate’s son, “Swing State” shines a light on a world that is oftentimes as brutal as it is rewarding. The road to the White House in 2008 runs directly through the Ohio Statehouse in 2006. A moving and dramatic family journey, highlighted by appearances from top politicos such as Bill and Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Al Gore and John Kerry, “Swing State” shines a light on an American family campaigning to put the “heart” back in “heartland.”
