Disappointingly, he doesn't actually say this in the video posted under the headline:

Kasich Tells Student: If You Don’t Want Raped, Then Don’t Go To Parties With Alcohol
http://winningdemocrats.com/kasich-tells-student-if-you-dont-want-raped-then-dont-go-to-parties-with-alcohol-video/

So even though the "want" + bare past participle (cf. http://microsyntax.sites.yale.edu/needs-washed) sounds nice and Ohioan in its syntax (leaving aside the opinion itself), it's apparently not an actual quote from Kasich.
