Three representing Butler County to Dems in Denver
Three local residents will be representing Butler County as delegates at the Democratic National Convention this week.
They are Middletown City Councilwoman Leslie Ford, businessman Stephen Hightower and retired Miami University professor Donald Daiker. Read about their expectations of the event here.
A full list of delegates to the convention is available here.
This is particularly monumental for Daiker, who stood on a packed mall in Washington. D.C.. 45 years ago and watched Martin Luther King Jr. dream of when his children would be judged not by the color of their skin, but the content of their character.
“Barack’s nomination is the fulfillment of Dr. Martin Luther King’s ‘I Have a Dream’ speech,” said Daiker. Read that full story here.
