State Sen. Kevin Coughlin will be ordered to appear before the Summit County elections board at 9 a.m. Feb. 26 to explain why he did not personally answer a subpoena for a previous board meeting.
Coughlin, who is leading a fight to unseat Summit County Republican Chairman Alex Arshinkoff, will be questioned along with seven of his supporters, the board decided during a meeting this morning.
Last week Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner broke a tie vote -- siding with Arshinkoff and the other Republican member of the Summit board -- in favor of having the eight appear before the board.
Coughlin has said that he and his supporters had attorneys represent them at the board's Jan. 22 meeting and they thought this complied with subpoenas.
The board subpoenaed Coughlin and the others for hearings to determine if petitions for several candidates for the county Republican Party's central committee were incorrectly altered. Arshinkoff and Jack Morrison Jr., the other local Republican board member, think Coughlin changed the petitions, which they claim would be a violation of election law.
Coughlin, R-Cuyahoga Falls, is attempting to oust Arshinkoff as party chairman by gaining a majority on the central committee in the March 4 primary. The committee will meet within 60 days of the election to decide the party's leadership.
