Other Republicans including House Speaker Bob Cupp and Gov. Mike DeWine criticized the impeachment push, which largely has taken place behind closed doors.
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- On Friday, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose praised Ohio House Republicans’ still preliminary threats to impeach Chief Justice Maureen O’Connor over her role in rejecting several sets of Republican-drawn political maps in the ongoing redistricting process, making him the highest-profile state Republican to do so.
But LaRose went on to take issue with the political tactics of impeaching O’Connor, since it wouldn’t be completed in time to make a difference in redistricting.
On Friday, Ohio Democrats sharply criticized LaRose for its comments, including Chelsea Clark, who is running for secretary of state as a Democrat. Rob Nichols, a spokesman for LaRose, said: “We’re comfortable allowing his comment to speak for itself.” A spokeswoman for the Ohio Supreme Court declined to comment.
