'Toledo Blade 6/12: Dems to meet Dean to discuss Ohio fraud''

"When you see one party with this much power, corruption sets in," Mr. Brown said. "I don't know of any state that has seen it this bad. "People are stunned by the corruption and arrogance of Ohio's Republicans," he said. That's why some Democratic members of Congress are planning to meet with Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean next week to talk about what happened in Ohio during the 2004 presidential election. Ohio held the keys to the White House last year, deciding the presidential race by a margin of fewer than 120,000 votes.

"I think there should be an investigation of Ohio," said Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D., Toledo), who last week put a statement on the congressional record about Ohio's investment scandal. She said she is hopeful a meeting with Mr. Dean will put Democrats in position to undertake a review of what occurred in her home state.-from today's story.
