While Connell had expressed a willingness to testify about what he knew concerning the ‘04 election, and the election website network he had created for Ohio’s then-Sec. of State J. Kenneth Blackwell, he had become reticent after Rove had sent threats to Connell and his wife, according to tipsters…
