Chrissy Hynde Supports Akron Mayor Don Plusquellic

Legendary Rock Icon and Akronite Chrissy Hynde speaks at a Saturday morning rally to support Akron Mayor Don Plusquellic outside the Summit County Democratic Party Headquarters. A large crowd turned out to hear various speakers, and later went on to distribute anti-recall information material in several Akron neighborhoods.



Chrissy talks about the Mayor's accomplishments in terms of rebuilding the city and making it a better place for people to live. Returning more often to her hometown over the past few years, and investing in a downtown restaurant, she likes the changes she has seen, and understands that the Mayor has been the guiding force in Akron's continued improvement. Chrissy even joined the crowd to deliver Citizens for Akron information and visit with nearby neighborhood residents.
