Gwen Logan drops out of race for Trumbull County recorder

WARREN — Gwen Logan of Farmdale, Trumbull County executive dog warden, has dropped out of the race to be county recorder.

“I believe that my involvement in public service throughout my life and professional experience as a manager my entire career uniquely qualified me to take on this responsibility. However, for the good of our local Democratic Party, and to show party unity and solidarity, I feel it best now to withdraw my candidacy,” she said in a statement.

Logan, a Democrat and wife of Judge Andrew Logan of common pleas court, received the second-highest number of votes last week at a Democatic Party Central Committee endorsement meeting.

The highest total was for Todd Latell of Girard with 67, followed by Logan with 52, and Warren Councilwoman Helen Rucker with 29.
