Beacon Journal staff writer Julie Wallace reports. Excerpt:
The investigation into the missing petitions at the Summit County Board of Elections has moved to a new level — lie-detector tests.
This week, investigators from the Summit County Sheriff’s Office started picking employees from the roughly 35 full-timers and 21 part-timers and asking them to submit to the test, Capt. Larry Momchilov said.
The tests are voluntary, but no one has refused so far, Momchilov said. He said he cannot say how many of the tests will be administered or if everyone will be asked to submit to one.
