Gary Kupferschmid managed to snag the autographs of five presidential candidates in just three hours at the Iowa State Fair this month, adding to a hefty collection that includes Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump – the last of whom got his vote in 2016.
Now Mr. Kupferschmid is back in his hometown, standing on the dimly lit porch of the Port of Burlington as the Mississippi River flows by, waiting for a signature from the latest candidate to roll through.

Believe it...gay business owners are going for Trump...
Nope the LCR already announced support for President Trump. Last time they were for him but not strongly...they endorsed him only a week before.
Yeah... what percentage of 1% own businesses? OK, a whole lot of them, but still, a huge percentage of 1% is still pretty small.
