Dennis L. White of Columbus, Ohio, was the chairman of the Ohio Democratic Party, 2002 - 2005. He was chairman of the Ohio delegation to the 2004 Democratic National Convention in Boston, where he urged members of his delegation not to cross picket lines in the event of a labor dispute between Boston's Mayor and its police union. This led several delegates to complain that they were being "forced to take a side without knowing all the facts".[1]
White resigned as chairman of Ohio Democratic Party on November 26, 2005. He is currently a member of the Democratic National Committee.
