Every two weeks, a new handcrafted grid will feature clues related to the current news and discussion in The Urbanist. Stuck on a tricky clue? It might help to check out some recently published articles — in this case particularly The Urbanist’s Primary Endorsements. With the August 5th primary fast upon us, this edition is election-themed.
