Jean Schmidt gets a reprimand

From the Cincinnati Enquirer:

COLUMBUS - A unanimous Ohio Elections Commission voted to issue U.S. Rep. Jean Schmidt a public reprimand Thursday for "false statements" - claiming she had a second undergraduate degree from the University of Cincinnati that she never received.

A letter citing the campaign's "reckless disregard for truth" was to be sent by the commission today to Schmidt, her campaign and her husband, Peter, as committee treasurer. It's the most serious punishment short of fines or criminal prosecution.

I wonder if the Ohio voters are rethinking their vote for mean Jean over Paul Hackett. What a turkey she's turned out to be.
