Ohio Secretary of State Not Deciding on Vu's Fate

The Secretary of State's office says it will not decide whether Cuyahoga County Elections Director Michael Vu will be fired. The County Board of Elections met Friday morning and split along party lines in a vote to dismiss Vu and his chief deputy. They expected Ken Blackwell to break the tie but Blackwell Spokesman James Lee says they will not get involved in personnel issues. That means the motion to remove Vu fails and he will keep his job. But the board members are clearly not happy with his performance. ideastream's Mark Urycki reports.
