Being April 1, we expected at least a few playful fake news stories to make the rounds. Happily, that expectation was met almost immediately.

We occasionally share news from Columbus, as part of the city falls within our coverage area. Columbus politics can be compelling on its own, but according to a piece published today by Columbus Underground, things may be getting even more… unconventional.

The post, written by co-founder Walker Evans, carries the headline: “AI Agent Announces Candidacy for Columbus Mayor in 2027.”

It’s a very entertaining read if you have a few minutes. Kudos to our friends at that excellent publication.
