There are reasons candidates’ political signs were targeted

On Oct. 3 the Daily News reported that yards signs with the names of two Moscow City Council candidates — Kelsey Berends and James Urquidez — were vandalized throughout town. Many were spray painted with words like “Pedo” and “Scum.”

The article makes no mention as to why these two candidates were targeted. I have a feeling the Daily News knows the answer — but it almost appears as if the paper is afraid to acknowledge the candidates’ ties to a controversial figure and institutions in Moscow.
