| Description | Two voting-age sons of a northern Ohio candidate didn't go to the polls Tuesday, and their father's race ended in a tie.
William Crawford, trying to retain his seat on the central committee of the Erie County Democratic Party, laughed Wednesday when asked about the election.
``I got two kids who missed the vote,'' he said.
Crawford and challenger Jean Miller each received 43 votes. Officials plan to conduct a recount, but the race may have to be settled by coin flip, said David Giese, county Democratic Party chairman and elections board member.
Crawford's son Jim lives across the street from his father. His son Andy is a college student who lives at home. |
