1433: Mike Doran – Republican Sexual Predators

Michael Doran has twice won election as the Lorain County Recorder, a generally non-controversial job, recording deeds, property records, and so on. However, he has a history of controversy and violence. He changed his name from Fetterman to Doran, which Democrats alleged was an attempt to hide his convictions for assault in Wyoming and for theft and driving on a suspended license in Washington. A fellow Republican has accused him of assault but did not press charges. Now he has been charged with sexual imposition, essentially having sexual contact with another person when the offender knows the contact is offensive or acts recklessly in that regard.
