Trumbull board to hear protest regarding hopeful’s candidacy

WARREN — The Trumbull County Board of Elections will meet in special session at 9 a.m. Aug. 12 to hear a protest of the independent candidacy of Jeffrey Goodman for Warren law director.

A July 27 letter signed by Dori L. Talstein and Joseph J. Thomas, both of Warren, says Goodman should not be allowed on the ballot.

The letter claims the nominating petitions Goodman submitted to the elections board contain false statements regarding his voting address and his independent status.

The letter says Goodman’s petitions indicate his address is 174 North Park Ave., but he failed to file a voter registration change of address to that location until May 1, 2015.
