State Frank LaRose has decided it’s a good idea to both oversee Ohio’s U.S. Senate election as the state’s chief elections officer and house part of his campaign for the seat in the same building.
The following article was originally published in the Ohio Capital Journal and published on News5Cleveland.com under a content-sharing agreement.
Last week, Channel 4 WCMH broke the news that LaRose is looking to move the secretary of state’s office from a building at 180 E. Broad Street where it had been located for nearly 20 years. The office was moving, the station reported, to a building at 200 Civic Center Drive. Meanwhile, housing the office that runs Ohio elections in the same building where part of LaRose’s campaign operation is located begs some serious questions about whether state election administrators will appear impartial in the heat of a contested primary — or in a General Election against incumbent Democrat Sherrod Brown.
Last month, after the failure of LaRose’s attempt to make voter-initiated constitutional amendments almost impossible, the Libertarian Party of Ohio filed a complaint with the U.S. Office of Special Counsel. It accused him of violating the Hatch Act, the law prohibiting the use of federal resources for political activities. For example, it prohibits members of Congress from fundraising in their congressional offices.
