The Bobcats are all at a loss when asked to explain their slow starts in recent games. They haven't been taking bad shots, and they've never played poorly enough to be out of any of the past six games after the first half, but they've also led only once heading into the break.
Tuesday's Democratic primary for Athens County Sheriff is the culmination of months of arguments and mudslinging for the county's only elected law enforcement position.
By Tuesday we could have a clearer picture of who the Democratic presidential candidate will be, but the Democratic race is likely to take us all the way to the party convention this summer. Why? For starters, the primaries aren't over: Pennsylvania alone has a total of 158 pledged delegates, and its primary won't be held until April 22. There are also the Michigan and Florida primaries to consider. Because both states moved their primaries to earlier dates in violation of party rules, they were stripped of their voting delegates at the Democratic convention. This decision remains controversial, and if the delegates' voting privileges are reinstated, they will be in Hillary Clinton's corner. It goes without saying that the inclusion of these delegate-rich states could change the outcome of the primaries.
It isn't do-or-die time yet for Lauren Kohn and the Bobcats, but it's pretty close.

Over the past couple of years, the current administration at the sheriff's office has racked up a quarter million in lawsuits. Athens County is one of the poorest communities in Ohio; can we really afford more lawsuits? Under the current administration, these events will probably occur again. This money could be used to work toward fixing problems within our community, such as homelessness. If Pat Kelly were in office, these things would not happen. Pat Kelly represents the change needed to fix the problems in Athens County. That is why I implore all Democrats to cast your vote for Pat Kelly for Sheriff.
