Columbus- Mysterious, huge public records requests that a Stow woman made to Gov. Ted Strickland and other Democratic statewide officeholders were the work of the Ohio Republican Party.

Jennifer Thrasher, a University of Akron graduate student, made the requests while working as a summer intern at the party's headquarters, a top Republican official acknowledged Wednesday.

The requests seek hundreds of thousands of records - six months' worth of e-mail messages to and from dozens of officials in each agency - and are causing headaches for Strickland, Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner and Attorney General Marc Dann.

The governor complained about broad records requests in an interview last week and said he suspected there might be "political motivations" behind Thrasher's request because Auditor Mary Taylor, the only Republican statewide officeholder, did not receive one.
