Court says Ohio Democrat chief broke election law in 2006Friday, August 22, 2008 12:20 PM
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A state appeals court has ruled that the head of Ohio's Democratic party
broke state elections law with a 2006 campaign mailing.
The decision released Thursday says a flier approved by
Ohio Democratic Party Chairman
Chris Redfern misled voters into thinking Democratic non-incumbent candidates were the current office holders.
The decision from the 10th District Court of Appeals backs up earlier rulings from a Franklin County court
and the Ohio Elections Commission.
Redfern had argued that he didn't knowingly violate the law.
