The Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Office is demanding that the attorney general dismiss the voter fraud indictment of a man who has been dead for two years.
State Attorney General Dave Yost announced six indictments during a press conference on Tuesday. Each is a green card holder who allegedly voted in previous elections.
Of the six people indicted, one was A 68-year-old man from North Royalton who allegedly voted in 2014, 2016 and 2018. Two more were from Northeast Ohio, and the three remaining are from the Columbus area.

This investigation stems from the summer when Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose complained to Yost that local county prosecutors have not taken up his team’s possible election fraud referrals.
With these new indictments, I asked Yost about local involvement and if the county prosecutors had been aware of the allegations.
