Our check against the record

The record does not settle it

Checked against Not yet checked: the Ohio Revised Code pay schedule for county clerks of courts and the General Assembly roll call that set it, which would show whether a vote raised her own pay; "personal stimulus" is a characterization.

The record: Ohio Legislature: legislation, sponsors and votes

Context

A Husted campaign TV ad referred to a 1998 Columbus City Council vote on a pay-raise ordinance that would not take effect for O'Shaughnessy's own then-current term.

Topics: Elections administration.
