If It Were Up to North Canton, Mitt Romney Would be President

Each precinct in town voted Republican — all 13 of them

Barack Obama won the national vote and he won in Ohio. But, if North Canton alone decided the next president of the United States, Mitt Romney would be the winner. According to unofficial results from the Stark County Board of Elections, 1,266 more North Canton voters picked Romney over President Barack Obama. In North Canton, 3,979 voted for Obama and 5,245 voted for Romney. In fact, Romney came out ahead in every single precinct in North Canton.  Also, more North Canton residents gave money to the Obama Campaign than to the Romney Campaign this year, but Romeny supporters gave more in general, according to campaign contribution reports.

Right on Ann Marie. The park levy was not needed but if people will give you the $ what the heck. My source also said that the extra $ will end up on more icing for county employees while the general public (that has seen their earning take a huge hit and not come back) continue to bleed. I am getting to hate elections because I will be poorer the day after. My taxes are more than the gas, …   more ›

President Barack Obama has won Ohio and reclaimed the presidency of the United States.

And in the heated and expensive race for one of Ohio's U.S. Senate seats, Sen. Sherrod Brown has defeated GOP challenger Josh Mandel to reclaim his U.S. Senate seat, according to projections from NBC News and the Associated Press. "Today in Ohio, in the middle of America, the middle class won," Brown said in a prepared statement. RESULTS UPDATED AT 1 A.M.

The uncertainty of the election was holding back employers. They were poised to start hiring with the election of Romney/ Ryan. Now that Obamabots have ended that hope, employers will be laying back because of Obamacare and higher taxes on small business owners. Many are laying off people.You Obamabots have no idea what you have done. Who is John Galt?   more ›

City Council to See 2 New Faces

Newcomers Dan Griffith and Tim Fox came out on top in their respective races Tuesday night, according to unofficial election results. Meanwhile, David Held keeps his title as mayor and Jon Snyder as Ward 4 councilman.

North Canton City Council will look a little different after the election of two new members Tuesday night. Dan Griffith, an attorney and senior trust officer at Premier Bank & Trust, came out victorious in the North Canton Council-at-Large race in which voters chose three council members. (Incumbents Marcia Kiesling and Mark Cerreta, who was appointed to an open council seat this year, also were voted in.) Tim Fox — an attorney at Black, McCuskey, Souers & Arbaugh — ran against incumbent Jeff Davies for the Ward 3 seat and won. Election results through the Stark County Board of Elections still are unofficial. Ward 3 “I knew it was going to be a real big challenge running against any incumbent, but I talked to some folks who gave me some …

Don't think for a minute that Mr. Greenwald's support for Issue 2 didn't have anything to do with his loss. Not a very intelligent position if you truly are all about North Canton Schools.   more ›
