In a clear victory for Ohio voters a federal judge and
the State Supreme Court all agreed that voters can register
to vote and vote all on the same day within a week-long
period during early voting. The courts found that Secretary
of State Brunner had, in fact, correctly interpreted a law
passed by the state legislature.
Are you busy on Nov. 4?
Of course you are going to vote but how about the rest of
the day? Contact your county and volunteer to work for the
election department for the day. Be a poll worker or work at
the election office supporting the officials. Be involved.
