Pavlik endorses Hillary at Austintown rally

AUSTINTOWN -- Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton spoke here today before a crush of supporters who interrupted her speech many times with shouts of “Hillary speaks for me.”

During her rally at Austintown Fitch High School, Clinton touched on numerous issues of interest in Ohio and the Youngstown region, including health care, job creation, trade agreements and education.

She vowed she would end the Bush administration’s system of
“corporate welfare’’ and return to the people money that the president has given away to oil and pharmaceutical drug interests.

Also at the rally, world middleweight boxing champion Kelly Pavlik of Youngstown endorsed Clinton for president.

Pavlik cited similarities between him and the U.S. senator from New York. He said both are fighters with experience who won’t give up.
