Lottery Director Patronite gains Senate committee backing

The Ways and Means Committee voted 6 0 to approve Lottery Director Gerald J Patronite amid debate over past disclosures at the Ohio Lottery Commission. Patronite defended hiring practices and claimed some posted criminal records were unfounded while noting four of seven suspended employees failed to disclose records. He argued past offenses were minor and not disqualifying. The panel also backed two Ohio Racing Commission appointees Richard J Heekin and Sebastian Lupica.

Senator Jesse Helms urged yielding to the House but failed 53 to 35.
