Hollywood-backed Democratic candidates didn’t fare as well as politically engaged celebrities had hoped in Tuesday’s elections, which sparked Russian meddling conspiracy theorizing and celebs bashing Green Party voters in Ohio.
The contest between Republican Troy Balderson and Democrat Danny O’Connor in Ohio’s 12th congressional district garnered perhaps the most celebrity attention in the weeks and days leading up to the election.
Actresses Chelsea Handler and Alyssa Milano and Grammy-winner John legend publicly endorsed the 30-year-old O’Connor.
Hmmm
Of one thing we can be certain about this celebrity “backlash”: Democracy in action clearly only counts in the minds of those celebrities when the vote goes their way…..Therefore, it is quite obvious that these “celebrities” are not Patriotic Americans devoted to the ideals of the Republic as expressed in the Constitution and Bill of Rights, rather something far less, and far more sinister.
