Diebold Lobbyist Donates $10,000 to Blackwell Campaign
COLUMBUS (AP) --
Forty-nine of the 85 people who this year have given Ohio secretary of
state Kenneth Blackwell the maximum $10,000 allowed an individual
donor have done so since May 2.
Members of Cincinnati financier Carl Lindner's family led the way by
combining for $90,000.
The maximum-donor list also includes Mitch Given, who is a registered
lobbyist for Diebold Election Systems, one of the vendors of voting
machines for election boards in Ohio.
Blackwell's office approved Diebold's selection as a vendor and
negotiated the price for the machines, although the counties chose the
machines.
