Monday's Election Promises Democratic Gains Countywide

The Monday vote yields a Democratic majority of two to three hundred for trustees and over five hundred for land appraisers. Democrats win seven of twelve land appraisers and thirteen of twenty-two town officers, while Republicans carry the municipal ticket in town but fail to gain broader footing. Voters in Liberty, Wiltshire, Hoaglin, Ridge, and Jackson townships show strong Democratic support amid critique of Republican policies.

Comer Tobacco Bridge Billboards and Local Shop Talk

In a lively ledger of customers from Washington township to Paulding, Comer’s tobacco shop records buyers like David Wright and Daniel Burnett planning to buy tobacco to plank a Little Auglaize bridge, with others dropping in for planks, stringers, and boots. They boast low prices, toutting 5 pounds for $1, 50 cents buys 50 plugs, and 10 cents gets two plugs large enough to half-sole boots, inviting all neighbors to return.
