DEBUT Get your own Bobby O. It seems like Orange County Commission District 1 candidate Bobby Olszewski is everywhere. And now, he actually can be.

Campaign supporters can order their Flat Bobby from Olszewski’s new online gift shop, which also includes Bobby O. coffee mugs, bobbleheads and life-size wall decals for the kids’ rooms.
