County auditor sparks GOP rally song stir in Clermont
The Clermont County political scene draws criticism after auditor Earle B. Kincaid used party rally records with candidate tied song titles. Democrats and some Republicans say the titles misstate candidates, notably Sympathy linked to William Shebesta, an injured veteran and recorder candidate. Dennis Spaulding, age 16, wins Ohio State 4 H vegetable garden award and earns a trip to the National 4 H Club Congress in Chicago with a $300 scholarship if he wins.
