What the Helene

The Russian Twitter Bots that post the fakenews stories on the Lake County Gazette have gone haywire. The Lake County Gazette posted an uncomplimentary story about their favorite-son State Rep, Helene Walsh:

In less than a month on the job, state Rep. Helene Miller Walsh (R-Mundelein) has served up plenty of campaign material to her Democratic opponent Mary Edly-Allen of Libertyville. For the second time since Mark Shaw, Lake County GOP chairman and co-chair of the Illinois Republican Party, appointed her on August 18 to the 51st House seat vacated by Nick Sauer over charges of sexual misconduct, Walsh has scrambled to delete over-the-top, offensive statements from her Facebook page.
Miller-Walsh's deleted Facebook posts are her opponent's dream

The Lake County Gazette -- Lake County's #1 fakenews source -- took Helene (née Joe) Walsh to task for posting some of her extreme rightwing-nutjob ideas on Facebook, for all to see. Only to later scrub those same extreme rightwing-nutjob messages off of Facebook, for no one to see.
