Officials from his own party have threatened to impeach embattled Ohio AG Marc “Dannimal House” Dann, but Dann is hanging on (for now). While there’s no schedule for impeachment proceedings at the moment, this Saturday the state Democratic Party will vote on rescinding its 2006 endorsement of Dann for AG. Such a vote would change Dann’s affiliation from “Democrat” to “Independent elected as a Democrat.”
If the legislature follows through on the impeachment, Dann could be the first statewide Ohio elected official ever to be impeached and removed. The Plain Dealer is listing potential replacements.
