Here in Butler County, Ohio, we are plagued with GOP scandals also. Just today we had this happen:

A Butler County official pleaded guilty Thursday to a misdemeanor crime.

Former county treasurer Carole Mosketti avoided jail time for her conviction on a conflict-of-interest charge, a judge fined her $1,000 and ordered her to pay $3,800 in restitution.

Mosketti was also ordered to resign from her elected position, which she did.

She has been under investigation by the state since last summer, when she hired her granddaughter to work for her.

Her position has not yet been filled.

Mosketti is a Republican and you can still view her profile on the county treasurer’s website.

I know other towns have the same problems with Democrats and Republicans alike, but things have been really bad here. There has been a lot of shake up lately in our Republican controlled county, with numerous officials resigning or being fired. It should also be worth mentioning that this county is also the home to the House Minority Leader, John Boehner.
