Former elections director speaks out

Aaron Sheasley.
Says firing was for ‘vague’ reasons; county disputes

CRANBERRY TWP — Aaron Sheasley, the county’s former elections director, claimed in an interview his termination was for “vague” reasons which he believes are wholly separate from his job performance.

The county, through a contracted labor attorney, said Sheasley’s version of events is “not accurate.”

Sheasley said he was asked on April 1 to attend a meeting with the county commissioners at a cigar bar in Cranberry Township. When he arrived, however, he claims an attorney for the county was present, and not the commissioners.

“It was made clear to me in that meeting that he was there on behalf of the commissioners,” Sheasley said of the attorney, whom he declined to name but said was not county solicitor Wil White.
