re: #82 BeachDem

Been gone a few days, so this has probably been discussed, but the first message on my voicemail once I got power back was from a friend in Columbus to tell me the Dispatch had endorsed Hillary—first time in a century they hadn’t gone Republican.

Was it a big deal on the homefront? And was it because the Dispatch changed hands or because Trump was too high a hill to climb even for the Dispatch?

Here is the post I put up about it last evening. The Dispatch story is partially in my post and the rest is linked. Also the Dispatch video is in the comment.

I don’t know how well it went over because I’ve been busy and I don’t really listen to a lot of local media. I did hear about it though on NBC 4 as they said it was the first time in a long time The Dispatch had endorsed a Democrat.

It was, for the Dispatch, a sober decision and they didn’t dance around and suggest people do what their conscious tells them. They flat out endorsed Hillary.
