The rally will be at the gazebo in the Lima Town Square at 5 p.m. on Thursday, April 4. It is organized by local group Allen and Hardin for Election Action & Democracy (AHEAD) and is part of a National Day of Action in coalition with MoveOn, Public Citizen, and People for the American Way.
The Icon gets but one chance a year to fool viewers.
That chance was yesterday, on April 1. Sometimes we win and other times, it's rather ho-hum.
Judging by the responses from this year's story, it was, well, not even ho-hum. It was a dud.

Canvassers will knock on Bluffton voter doors this week asking for signatures to place a voter-initiative on the November ballot.
The effort intends to replenish the Ohio Local Government Fund. If enough signatures are gathered and voters agree, the initiative places a surcharge on all Ohio vehicle owners who have vanity license plates, specialty plates, historical vehicle plates and motorcycle plates.
Although not yet confirmed, surcharge discussions range anywhere from $25 to $75 per plate, depending on the make, model and year of the vehicle, retroactive to 2013.
