Election Law Complaint Filed Against Bob McEwen — UDPATE

Filed under: OH-02 US House, Taxes & Government — TBlumer @ 10:33 am

I received this from the Ohio Elections Commission (OEC) today, in part:

CASE NO. 2005E-087
Blumer v. McEwen et al.

NOTICE OF PROBABLE CAUSE HEARING

Please be advised that the probable cause hearing in the above case has been scheduled for January 11, 2006 at 3:00 P.M. in Office of the Ohio Elections Commission on the sixth floor of the Wyandotte Building located at 21 West Broad Street, Columbus, Ohio, 43215.

____________________________

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Based on reviewing the OEC’s Rules of Procedure that I received along with the notice, a possible result of a Probable Cause Hearing is essentially a recommendation to the full Commision, which takes it from there in accordance with Ohio 3517-1-11(A)(2) (also found at this link, which I missed initially because the section’s title did not appear to apply). So, it does not appear that any kind of definitive ending will be achieved on January 11.
