Butler County roundup - Central committee update, halfway house closing

By Josh Sweigart | Friday, March 12, 2010, 05:51 PM

In case you missed it, two stories in our paper today:

  • State officials say a local halfway house is being unfunded by the state after a study found it does more harm than good in keeping people out of prison. See that story, with a testimonial from an “alumni” of the program, here.
  • The Butler County Board of Elections has decided not to bar a woman from the May 4 Republican primary for a party central committee position, agreeing it was likely a poll worker’s mistake that made her a Democrat. The board also is reconsidering its decision to disqualify another candidate, saying that ruling was based on miscommunication with the secretary of state’s office. That story is here.

Any thoughts on either of these issues?
