MORE: Elections commission to decide on complaints against Sugarcreek resident
Stafford spearheaded the “vote no” campaign against the Bellbrook-Sugarcreek schools levy proposal that was overwhelmingly rejected by voters in May.
Stafford actively administers the "Vote NO On Bellbrook-Sugarcreek Schools Levy" Facebook page.
This morning an email sent to Stafford from the elections board deputy director was posted on the page.
“The statutes prescribing the form of candidate petitions generally require substantial compliance ... your petition(s) failed to meet substantial compliance,” the email reads.
The page administrator wrote in the post “we are trying to find out the details” and suggested supporters call Greene County Elections Board Director Llyn McCoy and Elisabeth Ellis at the Greene County Prosecutor’s Office.
