Who is Helflin?
The Chronicle's post-mortem on the Heflin-Vo race is reasonable enough, given the low standards that have been set.
Unfortunately, there's one little error that seems to have gotten by the idealists on the editorial board:
After alleging "massive voter fraud," former Republican state Rep. Talmadge Heflin this week finally conceded the seat to the Democratic victor in the November election, newcomer Hubert Vo. In the end, the Helflin camp was the largest font of disinformation.
Who is Helflin?
The misspelling found its way into print editions as well.
We approve of the local focus, but editorials in their ideal state should get the names of local politicians right.
