9A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • THURSDAY, DECEMBER 29, 2016 2016: President-elect Trump outlasted 16 Republican rivals Continued from Page 1A Here are 2016’s top 10 sto- ries, in order: 1. U.S. ELECTION: This year’s top story traces back to June 2015, when Donald Trump descended an escala- tor in Trump Tower, his bastion in New York City, to announce he would run for president. Widely viewed as a long shot, with an unconventional cam- paign featuring raucous ral- lies and pugnacious tweets, he outlasted 16 Republican rivals. Among the Democrats, Hil- lary Clinton beat back an unex- pectedly strong challenge from Bernie Sanders, and won the popular vote over Trump. But he won key Rust Belt states to get the most electoral votes, and will enter the White House with Republicans maintain- ing control of both houses of Congress. 2. BREXIT: Confound- ing pollsters and oddsmak- ers, Britons voted in June to leave the European Union, triggering financial and polit- ical upheaval. David Cam- eron resigned as prime minister soon after the vote, leaving the task of negotiating an exit to a reshaped Conservative gov- ernment led by Theresa May. Under a tentative timetable, final details of the withdrawal might not be known until the spring of 2019. 3. BLACK MEN KILLED BY POLICE: One day apart, police in Baton Rouge, Loui- siana, fatally shot Alton Ster- ling after pinning him to the ground, and a white police offi- cer shot and killed Philando Castile during a traffic stop in a suburb of Minneapolis. Com- ing after several similar cases in recent years, the killings rekindled debate over policing practices and the Black Lives Matter movement. 4. PULSE NIGHTCLUB MASSACRE: The worst mass shooting in modern U.S. his- tory unfolded on Latin Night at the Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando. The gunman, Omar Mateen, killed 49 people over the course of three hours before dying in a shootout with SWAT team members. During the standoff, he pledged allegiance to the Islamic State. 5. WORLDWIDE TER- ROR ATTACKS: Across the globe, extremist attacks flared at a relentless pace through- AP Photo/Tony Hicks The front pages of various British newspapers in London reporting on Donald Trump winning the U.S. presidential election. Widely viewed as a long shot, with an unconventional campaign featuring raucous rallies and pugnacious tweets, he outlasted 16 Republican rivals. Among the Democrats, Hillary Clinton beat back an unexpectedly strong challenge from Bernie Sanders, and won the popular vote over Trump. But he won key Rust Belt states to get the most electoral votes, and will enter the White House with Republicans maintaining control of both houses of Congress. out the year. Among the many high-profile attacks were those that targeted airports in Brus- sels and Istanbul, a park teem- ing with families and children in Pakistan, and the seafront boulevard in Nice, France, where 86 people were killed when a truck plowed through a Bastille Day celebration. In Iraq alone, many hundreds of civilians were killed in repeated bombings. 6. ATTACKS ON POLICE: Ambushes and tar- geted attacks on police offi- cers in the U.S. claimed at least 20 lives. The victims included five officers in Dallas work- ing to keep the peace at a pro- test over the fatal police shoot- ings of black men in Minnesota and Louisiana. Ten days after that attack, a man killed three officers in Baton Rouge, Lou- isiana. In Iowa, two policemen were fatally shot in separate ambush-style attacks while sit- ting in their patrol cars. 7.

The CIA later concluded that Russia was behind the DNC hacking in a bid to boost Donald Trump’s chances of beating Hillary Clinton. 8. SYRIA: Repeated cease- fire negotiations failed to halt relentless warfare among mul- tiple factions. With Russia’s help, the government forces of President Bashar Assad finally seized rebel-held portions of the city of Aleppo, at a huge cost in terms of deaths and destruction. 9. SUPREME COURT: After Justice Antonin Scal- ia’s death in February, Presi- dent Obama nominated Mer- rick Garland, chief judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, to fill the vacancy. However, majority Republicans in the Senate refused to consider the nomination, opting to leave the seat vacant so it could be filled by the winner of the presiden- tial election. Donald Trump has promised to appoint a conser- vative in the mold of Scalia. 10. HILLARY CLIN- TON’S EMAILS: Amid the presidential campaign, the FBI conducted an investigation into Clinton’s use of a private com- puter server to handle emails she sent and received as sec- retary of state. FBI Director James Comey criticized Clin- ton for carelessness but said the bureau would not recommend criminal charges. Stories that did not make the top 10 included Europe’s migrant crisis, the death of longtime Cuban leader Fidel Castro, and the spread of the Zika virus across Latin Amer- ica and the Caribbean. 105 Business-Sales Op 150 Homes for Sale 340 Fuel & Wood Legal Notices PUBLISHER'S NOTICE FREE WOODEN PALLETS Available for pick up at The Daily Astorian loading dock. 949 Exchange St, Astoria AB6081 CITY OF ASTORIA NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING Be an Astoria Carrier! $100 Signing Bonus!
