By now, I’m used to hearing misconceptions about voting in Ohio. The one I run into most of the time is from ex-offenders. Yes, you can vote in Ohio if you’ve been convicted of a felony- as long as you are registered to vote. You don’t get to vote while incarcerated, but, when you have [...]
I never liked the Dayton Daily News endorsing candidates when I was a candidate. The questions were weak, the answers weaker and the “basis” for their endorsement often was how much money the candidate had raised and who had already endorsed them. Now that the Dayton Daily no longer gives endorsements, the dummy voter slate [...]
Once again, something stinks in Montgomery County. The deputy police chief of the Miami Twp. Police Department, Maj. John DiPietro, who is normally their PR go to guy- who obviously should know better, took it upon himself to “decontaminate” a 17 year old girl who had been pepper sprayed after shoplifting.

It was only a crime if you didn’t get caught. Because if you got caught stealing from the taxpayers in Montgomery County- you could just resign and pay the money back.

He speaks about things that are seemingly obvious, but in a way that makes them seem like an epiphany of the surreal. The [...]
Jon Husted is a tool. He lied about his residency when he was in the State House, and now, as Secretary of State he’s acting bizarrely. Being the chief elections officer in the state means making sure we get maximum voter turnout and the most accurate results possible. So why would he order absentee ballot [...]
The Montgomery County Commission is planning to hire a national search firm to help them find a new county administrator to replace Deb Feldman. They should send her the search bill, considering she’s been in charge for almost ten years and doesn’t have several people ready for the commission to choose from. Better yet, it [...]
If New York City can have the services of Michael Bloomberg for a dozen years, why can’t Dayton benefit from having local business legend Clay Mathile take the helm as the new Montgomery County Administrator now that Deb Feldman has found her soft landing which so many of our local political has beens seem to [...]
