Steve Kraus

Sucessful small business owner, Realtor/Auctioneer. Past candidate for U.S. Congress for Ohio's 9th District. (yes, I'm that Steve Kraus) Networked with hundreds of business executives. Built relationships with influential political insiders. Built a high degree of trust and respect with the public and supporters. Gained national exposure in my run against "Joe the Plumber". Built my image to challenge a nationally recognized celebrity, while being outspent 10 to 1, to fall short by less then 2% of the vote for the Republican primary.
