In East Price Hill, two days after ICE arrests along Warsaw Avenue, information is on slow drip. According to the Butler County Sheriff's office, more than 300 "illegal aliens" are being held at the jail. Spokeswoman, Sgt. Kim Peters, confirmed Monday that Alonzo Tomas' Mendez is one of them.

There has been a call to action tonight in support of Cincinnati's immigrant community. It comes after several arrests by federal agents Saturday in East Price Hill. Some West Side churches and others are organizing a rally from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday afternoon in front of the Warsaw Avenue Kroger.

Cincinnati's post-primary analysis might be in need of an extra long couch. Voter turnout Tuesday turned out to be very low. Picture two-thirds of Paycor Stadium empty on game day. That's how many Cincinnatians voted on Tuesday. A little over 22,000 people, 8 percent of registered voters. Mayor Aftab Pureval got 18,505 of them, but worries about the turnout trend.

In his very first race for elected office, Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval remembered he "was sweating bullets.”That was in 2016, when he was not well-known but got elected as the Hamilton County Clerk of Courts.
