Greenbackers Fail in Pender County Sheriff Race
The Wilmington Post reports that in Pender County no Democrat voted for the Greenback ticket as Walker ran as an independent Greenbacker against GOP and Democratic nominees. Democrats largely supported him yet returned to their party on election day, helping the Republican candidate lose and the Democratic nominee win. The piece also comments on General Butler in Massachusetts, arguing he must appeal to wealthier, respected voters and distance himself from Dennis Kearney to win.
