[edit] Indiana Attorney General?

The article currently claims that Otto won election as the Indiana Attorney General in 1858. However, this source does not list him as having held that office; instead, Joseph E. McDonald is listed as having held the position from 1856 - 1860. The Congressional Bioguide agrees, stating that McDonald won re-election in 1858. Maybe the article should say Otto "unsuccessfully ran"? Postdlf (talk) 20:06, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Yep. Found a source for that. Postdlf (talk) 20:53, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
