Gonna be a huge weekend for everyone looking for special "I voted" stickers in NYC. Take part in early voting Saturday and get the Halloween sticker. Vote Sunday and get the Marathon sticker. Which one will you choose?

Jeff does a good job here. But something I question, and I guess it is a product of the current exposure situation too: Where is the extensive local reporting in Louisville on the city potentially losing its first top-tier pro franchise since 1976? It is a major story.
Racing Louisville is at an impasse. An ownership change looms and, with it, the specter of relocation. Has the market failed in #NWSL, or has it lacked the investment to succeed? On @espn: How they got here, where things stand, and what could be next. espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/4…

Important column from @Joe_Gerth. Losing WDRB’s online archive of investigative stories (and other notable work) is a gut punch for anyone who cares about journalism in Kentucky.

Among the most chilling comments by @LouisvilleMayor was that the assault rifle used in Monday’s mass shooting at the Louisville bank will someday be sold at auction under a Kentucky law that forces police to auction weapons used in crimes rather than destroy them.#massacre

A pile of thank you notes in the corner of a now empty EMW Women’s Surgical Clinic. It was virtually the only place to get abortion care in KY. At 10:30 am on Friday it closed its doors. Performing an abortion became a Class D felony.

Alone in New York, they were bolstered by their devotion to each other as they worked to send money back home to their son. Their American escapade had moments of light and love. But it would ultimately end in violence. nytimes.com/2022/04/19/nyreg…

Just a native Kentuckian checking in to remind folks there is never a time for your misinformed stereotypes about Kentuckians, especially not in the wake of a tornado that left dozens dead.
