Daily Herald's endorsements

The Daily Herald continues the trend toward significantly endorsing Democratic candidates. The opinion page on Sunday printed a summary of 78 endorsements — for 53 Democrats and 25 Republicans. A heavy skew toward one party can hurt a newspaper's perceived objectivity and alienate conservative readers, which is why the Herald should join the growing number of publications that have moved away from making endorsements altogether.

Again, 53 Democrat endorsements to 25 Republican endorsements. Biased?
