Some of you may have already read or heard that Bob Henry Baber was involved in a traffic accident earlier today.
I just spoke with Bob Henry's daughter via cell phone. She says that they are mostly OK, but that the hospital wants to keep Bob overnight for observation. She said that he got a "pretty good" bump on the head, but that the word so far is that the biggest concern appears to be about some possible whiplash.
So Bob may be running a little slower in the 3 weeks remaining of this election campaign.

IMPORTANT UPDATE:
While driving on I-79 to Pittsburgh, PA to catch a flight, Dr. Robert “Bob Henry” Baber and his two youngest children, Cody and Jackie, were involved in a traffic accident. A PAVCO semi-trailer truck illegally entered their lane and struck their vehicle with enough force to pin them to the guard rail. The driver of the truck did not stop. He was later apprehended by law enforcement on I-68.
Candidate Baber and his children received some injuries (to my knowledge, none are life-threatening) and have been transported to Reuben Memorial Hospital in Morgantown, WV.
