Lawyer who violated law picked for elections board
By Staff and Cox News Service dispatches
LEBANON | A lawyer who violated Ohio election law during his challenge of the election of Warren County Prosecutor Rachel Hutzel in 2004 has been nominated for a seat on the county board of elections.
David Fornshell of Lebanon was nominated Friday by the Warren County GOP. Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell will make the appointment.
It was the second county board nomination of the week for Fornshell, who was appointed to the Warren County MRDD by the county commissioners Tuesday. His appointment to the elections board is less certain because he made a false statement during the primary race against Hutzel.
The Ohio Elections Commissions found "clear and convincing evidence" that his early campaign T-shirts falsely indicated he was prosecutor.
