The Democratic Party Has Given Orders To Run a Clean Campaign ... BUT

The Democratic Party has given orders for candidates to run a clean campaign, yet we don't feel the former Republican, supposed "well to do", Maple Hts, Ohio mayor is listening.

For months, he has consistently and ruthlessly attacked his female African American mayoral opponent with  innuendo, unsubstantiated smears, and misleading statements ... even at city council meetings.  We believe the mayor has now tarnished the office of mayor in Maple Heights.  

Maple Heights is a city of about  70% minority residents (61%+ African American).

Now most people who are aware of our club, know we don't trust most politicians; however, in this case, his opponent is outmatched by money and power, limiting her chances for a fair fight.

The mayor has made this mayoral race so contentious that now her supporters are being harassed.  Several days ago, a white councilman, who openly supports the mayor's opponent, was allegedly awakened after midnight with a call that was chilling.  They called him a "nigger lover".  

Since the Democratic Party has endorsed (not the mayor, but) his opponent, we expect the Democratic Party to step in and protect this councilman. 

Our suggestion to the mayor is to run on the issues.

We are shocked and outraged, and so we will be keeping a close eye on this year's mayoral race until election day, November 8th.
