From Harris to Berding

Shawn Baker, campaign manager for Greg Harris' unsuccessful Cincinnati City Council campaign, now works for Councilman Jeff Berding.

Baker's name showed up on top of a news release sent this afternoon from Berding's office, announcing a press conference on New Year's Eve day at 10:30 a.m. during which Berding will talk about his motion to hold a council retreat with City Manager Milton Dohoney and Mayor Mark Mallory before March 31.

Baker and Earmon Powell replace Mel McVay, who is going to work in the city's planning office.
