As Trump returns, Clinton still absent: Dems focus less on NW Ohio this year

By this point in the last three presidential election campaigns, northwest Ohio had received at least one campaign visit from the Democratic presidential candidate.

So far this year, however, no city in northwest Ohio has made it on Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s calendar, while Republican Donald Trump has scheduled his second rally in Toledo. Mr. Trump is to appear in the Stranahan Theater, 4645 Heatherdowns Blvd., at noon Wednesday.

Nor have any high-level Clinton surrogates set foot on the flat and formerly swampy soil of northwest Ohio so far in the general election campaign — although one is scheduled this week.

U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.), popular with party progressives, campaigned Saturday in Columbus and is due today in Cleveland. U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (D., Vt.), who was Mrs. Clinton’s strongest rival in the primary contest, campaigned for her in northeastern Ohio’s Akron and Kent on Saturday....

Mrs. Clinton has failed to show up in many places during this campaign season. The last time I looked at her campaign schedule, rallies were being led by surrogates, and Clinton herself had maybe two or three personal appearances. She does not have a heavy schedule.

They have no choice. They’ll kill Pickles if they make her work more than three to four hours a week, and they know it, hence all of the appearances by surrogates.

Even the looney true believers will begin to get suspicious at some point.

Allahpundit is full of poppycock. This college poll gets countered with the liberal Ipsos poll that has PA tight. Only a 2.3% separation.

Ipsos: Sept 9 to 15 - Clinton 46.112% to Trump 43.81%.
