David Donofrio is running for re-election to the South-Western City Schools board of education. Until recently, he was also employed by Prairie Township, officials for which say he was running the office like a campaign headquarters. Trustees Kennedy, Cathy Schmelzer and Doug Stormont voted unanimously to fire Donofrio at a special meeting Thursday. Donofrio says he had submitted notice earlier to take another job. A Dispatch request for records related to the firing revealed a trove of campaign-related documents found on Donofrio's township computer.
