According to
this story in the Cincinnati Enquirer, Michael Tilton will be the interim auditor. He has an interesting story...
His father, James A. Tilton, served as Butler County auditor for 13 years and then went on to become chief deputy auditor in Hamilton County. James Tilton had replaced his boss and dad, A.R. "Ray" Tilton, as Butler auditor in 1974.
Tilton is currently the director of real estate for the auditor's office. He will get a "small" increase in pay while in the temporary position. The Butler County Republican Party Central Committee will select the "real" replacement for Rogers:
But that could take some time, as the committee is shuffled with new members who are elected during today's primary. The 260-member committee has until April 18 - 45 days after Rogers resigned, to select a new auditor.
A 17-member screening committee will interview candidates. The winner will need 131 votes from the membership.
Whomever gets selected, that person will face the electorate in November...
