Letter: In response to a Marjorie Taylor Greene event in Portage County

- Letter to the editor

I would like to thank and commend the Editorial Board of the Record-Courier for their statement that the invitation to Marjorie Taylor Greene is disgraceful and divisive. But there is one very significant issue that has been overlooked.

Greene has claimed “there was MASS voter fraud on a scale that should terrify every American…” Amanda Suffecool, who chairs the Portage County Republican Party hosting this event, serves on the Portage County Board of Elections. Our Board of Elections, as affirmed by the Ohio Secretary of State, a Republican, is one of the most well run BOE’s in the state. How do I reconcile the support of Greene, and her unsubstantiated claim of voter fraud, by an individual who is charged with the oversight of this county’s election reliability and trustworthiness?
