Gingerich quits as campaign manager amid Powell dispute
Don Gingerich of Hunter says he is giving up after months seeking action on what he calls an illegal campaign expenditure by Congressman Walter E. Powell. He alleged $10,000 was paid for his services as campaign manager in the 1970 primary and provided cognovit notes as evidence. The Ohio Secretary of State and Butler County prosecutor declined to investigate, citing statute limits and calling the dispute a witchhunt.
