Aaron McLear speaks to Darke County Young Republicans

Greenville's own Aaron McLear spoke Tuesday night to a small group to kick off the formation of the Darke County Young Republicans. McLear gave an interesting and entertaining speech about his time working as press secretary for California Governor Arnold Schwartzenegger.

McLear has been Schwarzenegger's press secretary since 2007, having previously served as regional press secretary for the Republican National Comittee for Ohio, Pennsylvania, and the Northeast. McLear also served as the Ohio communications director for the Bush/Cheney 2004 campaign.

McLear graduated from Greenville High School and went on to earn a degree in journalism from Ohio University. Aaron McLear is the son of Bob and Jean McLear of Greenville.
