Lake County Board of Elections: We call upon you to publicly support uniform, expanded voting hours across the entire state of Ohio.
Why is this important?
According to an article in the August 14 "Plain Dealer", Ohio's Sec. of State Husted is considering restricting voting hours all over our state to between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., exactly when most of us are working to earn a living. What is happening to our democratic way of life, for which thousands have given their lives, when public officials are actually trying to limit voting hours and therefore our voting rights?
