From Dayton Daily News:
“This is a colossal waste of taxpayer dollars from someone who claims to be a guardian of the public treasury,” Crites said.
Crites and Cordray are both running for attorney general.
Crites counted 31 people – eight in public affairs, 13 in community outreach, and 10 in community education – in Cordray’s office that contribute to the public relations promotion of the treasurer. Their combined salaries total $1.8 million, and average $59,000 a year.
Leesa Brown, spokeswoman for Cordray’s campaign, said, “He is counting in a way that benefits him. Obviously we don’t agree.”
