Gallia County voters swing to Democrats in 16 year shift

Truman's nationwide surge and local dynamics sent votes wandering across the ballot, with Kanauga illustrating a split ticket pattern. Elevated Democratic energy helped John E. Halliday win prosecutor while Elmer E. Hatfield fell short for sheriff.
