Findlay Auditor Jim Staschiak is running for reelection. The Findlay Republican submitted petitions to run for office to the Hancock County Board of Elections Wednesday. Staschiak says he wants to focus on the auditor’s office, where he says he can do the most good for the city.
Staschiak has served as city auditor since March of 2011. The Republican Party appointed him to fill the position after Robert Sprague became a state representative. Findlay voters then elected Staschiak in 2011 and 2015.
Staschiak is only the second person to file petitions to run for office in Findlay this year. 1st Ward Councilwoman Holly Frische has submitted papers to run for mayor.
