Morgan wins endorsement of Greene County Republicans in state auditor race
State Rep. Seth Morgan won the endorsement of the Greene County Republican Party on Thursday, Feb. 18, with 60 percent of the vote.
The Greene County party voted the opposite of the Ohio Republican Party which is backing Delaware County Prosecutor Dave Yost.
Morgan entered the auditor’s race after incumbent Republican Auditor Mary Taylor joined GOP gubernatorial candidate John Kasich as his lieutenant governor running mate.
Ohio Republican Party Chairman Kevin DeWine asked Yost to drop out of the attorney general’s race and run for auditor.
“Seth Morgan continues to be recognized as the most qualified candidate of either party for Auditor of State,” said Rob Scott, Morgan’s communications director, in a statement released after the Greene County GOP endorsement. The Greene County endorsement is the second county endorsement Seth Morgan has received in more than a week. Brown County Republicans nominated Morgan last week.

It has to be a slap in the face of ORP Chairman Kevin DeWine that his home county didn’t follow his lead in the choice for a state auditor.

Hey Debbie. I totally agree with you. The Greene County Republicans like the Republicans all over cannot be trusted. They are selfish self serving people who only care about themselves and no one else.

No for sure that I won’t be voting for a Democrat. We don’t need dictators, we need representatives of the people.

I will never forgive or forget the Greene County Republican party for turning it’s back on Reed Madden who has done so much for so many. They have a funny way of picking candidates. I don’t know if the guy they picked is good or not, but I will not be taking their word for it. Neither should you.
