Democrats accuse Thompson of misjudging county problems
The Allen County Democratic Party charged Commissioner Richard Thompson with being wrong about county issues while defending approval of the Joint Vocational School for November voters. They criticized sewer plans and faulted Republican leadership, saying bond levies could fund projects. Thompson rebutted, endorsing countywide school use and citing local beneficiaries. Shafer questioned who released the statement as party leaders discussed the matter in multiple meetings.
