17 GOP lawmakers back Morgan for auditor
Dave Yost may have the state Republican Party’s endorsement in the auditor’s race but Rep. Seth Morgan, R-Huber Heights, is showing off some Republican endorsements of his own.
Morgan’s campaign on Monday, March 1, released the names of 17 Republican state legislators who are backing Morgan in the race for the GOP nomination for auditor against Yost, the Delaware County prosecutor.
“It is becoming clearer with each day that Seth Morgan has the people’s endorsement for this race,” House Minority Whip John Adams of Sidney, one of the 17, said in a press release.
Yost’s campaign was not impressed.
“I guess the reason a majority of Seth’s colleagues have not signed on is that he’s only been a legislator for 14 months and Dave has over 90 percent of Republican county auditors on his side,” said Brent Swander, Yost campaign spokesman. There are 46 GOP House members and 21 Republican senators.
Others endorsing Morgan are: Reps. Pete Beck of Mason; Terry Blair of Washington Twp.; Terry Boose of Norwalk; Danny Bubp of West Union; Dave Burke of Marysville; Courtney Combs of Hamilton.
Dave Hall of Killbuck; Cliff Hite of Findlay; Ron Maag of Salem Twp.; Jeff McClain of Upper Sandusky; Margaret Ann Ruhl of Mt. Vernon; Barbara Sears of Sylvania; Joe Uecker of Miami Twp. and Lynn Wachtmann of Napoleon.
Sen. Tim Grendell of Chesterland also has endorsed Morgan.

Those 17 are the smartest yet. Support Seth and and get his rear end of politics.

morgan couldn’t win the Montgomery County Auditor race against Karl Keith, in fact he got destroyed. But he seems to think he can win the State Auditor job? Give it up Seth.

Just within the last two weeks I made up my mind NOT to vote for Yost. He and his campaign are a bunch of negative attack dogs. If Yost wanted to run a negative campaign he should have stayed in the race for AG. Yost can only point to his little world in Deleware.
