Syllabus

The trial court did not abuse its discretion allowing two witnesses to testify after the state failed to disclose the witnesses in violation of Crim.R. 16. The trial court did not abuse its discretion finding two witnesses from the board of elections competent to testify as custodians of records. While the state's questioning of a witness from the board of elections exceeded the limiting instruction, the appellant's substantial rights were not violated as the evidence was overwhelming, outside the improper question, that appellant was guilty of illegal voting. The evidence was sufficient and not against the weight of the evidence to warrant a reversal of the trial court's judgment. Judgment affirmed.
