Franklin County Democratic Chairman Denny White won unanimous election after Dennis Lieberman dropped out. White succeeds David Leland who leaves to head Project Vote. White urged unity to beat Republicans who have led Ohio since 1995, while Lieberman pledged support.

Ohio debates mentally retarded death penalty ban
Ohio remains among states without a clear prohibition on executing the mentally retarded. Sen Mark Mallory failed to attach such a ban to an electric chair repeal bill last year. Attorneys say no Ohio inmate on death row has been identified as mentally retarded, but future claims may arise after the Supreme Court ruling. Danny Hill, a death-row inmate with IQ around 54, is cited in the debate as a possible test case, with prosecutors arguing his trials show varied IQ results.
