Jerome Paul Stano (September 30, 1932 – August 29, 2011) is a former member of the Ohio Senate. Originally appointed to succeed Ron Mottl who had been elected to Congress in 1974, Stano won a full term in 1976. However, in an upset in 1980, Stano lost to Republican Gary C. Suhadolnik, in a Republican wave that saw Democrats lose control of the upper chamber. Suhadolnik went on to serve in the Senate for over eighteen years.[2]
