The average age of a southwestern Ohio voter in last year's presidential election was 50. In local elections two years ago, it was about 60. It's no secret that turnout is much lower in these "off-year" elections. But an Enquirer analysis of local voting and census data finds that the composition of the electorate is also very different: Voters tend to be older, whiter and more suburban than those in even-numbered years.

And tennis player Serena Williams has been to the presidential mansion three times in the months after Barack Obama's election - more than Cincinnati Mayor Mark Mallory. That's according to White House visitor logs just released in a move the Obama administration calls "transparency like you've never seen before."

President Obama may have been thinking big with his $787 billion stimulus package, but his counterparts in local government are thinking decidedly small.
