Secretary of State Husted Appoints John C. Jones to The Harrison County Board of Elections

COLUMBUS –Secretary of State Jon Husted has appointed John C. Jones as a member of the Harrison County Board of Elections. Mr. Jones will complete the term of Carolyn Addy, who recently resigned.

State law requires bipartisan representation on each of Ohio’s 88 county boards of elections. Each board is made up of two Republican members and two Democratic members, all of whom must be qualified electors in the counties for which they serve. The Secretary of State makes appointments to boards of elections based on the recommendations of the executive committees of the respective county political parties.

John C. Jones was recommended by the Harrison County Republican Executive Committee.
