Westside Republicans Mix Partisan Politics with Allegedly Non-Partisan Ballot Issues
Friday, October 20, 2006
Posted by The Dean of Cincinnati
Some would have us believe that Issue 12 (the alleged Jail Tax ballot initiative) is a non-partisan issue. But why does Phil Heimlich and his friends keep making partisan campaign events in connection with Issue 12? Is Issue 12 a non-partisan ballot measure, or just a campaign talking point for Team Heimlich?
Here is a reproduction of a recent invitation sent out by the Heimlich campaign. Notice the event is co-hosted by Melva Gweyn, the Westside’s most famous race-baiter.
