Where do we suspect this Columbus UFL team is going to play and what do we like as the team name?
SOURCES: The four new #UFL markets will be Boise (Idaho), Columbus (Ohio), Florida (likely Orlando), and Kentucky (Louisville/Lexington). Blockbuster moves to be announced by the league over the coming weeks.
Will have interviews with City Attorney Klein and FCDP chairman Big Sexy in tomorrow’s dispatch.
One of the more psychotic proceedings I have ever been a part of. And I used to black out regularly on Sullivant Avenue.
They’re taking the vote, but Ross will carry the endorsement. it’s the same as it always was: The Franklin County Democratic Party is a cocktail circuit. More to come!

State Rep. Dontavius Jarrells says he represents a lot of District 7, so he knows what constituents need in an endorsement of Tiara Ross. (District 7 voted for Jesse Vogel by 18 points.)
Adrienne Hood comes out swinging for no endorsement. “I am talking about the process. Where is the integrity in this room?”
Rep. Munira Abdullahi says that voter engagement is at an all time low because party insiders tell voters what’s best for them. Folks, she’s too big time for the Statehouse. We gotta get her to Congress or the Mayor’s office.
Party insider Jen House, who lives in District 7, gives the game away about the “wards in name only” scam by saying she feels that every city council member is her representative.
House Minority Whip Beryl Brown Piccolantonio (D-Gahanna) motions to amend the original motion and NOT endorse in the District 7 race. “What this party needs to be considering is whether it’s in the best interest of the party to endorse in this race.”
Zach Klein is doing his Mother Theresa routine for Tiara Ross, his employee at the City Attorney’s office. #KleinCrimeFamily
Screening chairman is knocking Vogel for not understanding “implementation pathways” for public policy which is some impressive gobbledygook.
Standing room only at the IBEW for the Franklin County Democratic Executive Committee endorsement meeting. Mayor Suburbs is in the house! Looking like he just got off a beach in Morroco.
It’s kicking off for District 7 endorsement.

The Mayor hit the bricks. He’s probably going to try to get a quick nine holes in on the way home.

Pritzker on possible mid-decade redistricting to counteract Texas and other Republican states: "We have to see what they decide to do about Texas... I think we ought to play by the rules," but acknowledges "counterbalance" might be necessary. #twill
