Questions & Answers

1. How will you ensure that election administration in Ohio is fair, honest, and impartial? How are you going to ensure that all eligible voters who want to vote in Ohio can vote? (150 word limit)

I vow to serve the voters of Ohio first and foremost. Second, I pledge to work closely with each board of elections so that the needs and concerns of every country are heard and answered in Columbus. Where Election Law in unclear, I will issue directives to help clear up the confusion. Third, I promise to serve as a neutral Chief Elections Officer.

My top priority as Chief Elections Officer will be to protect and preserve the integrity of Ohio's election system. This will include being vigilant against voter fraud, and taking all steps necessary to ensure that every eligible voter is encouraged and permitted to vote. That's why I support the recently passed legal protections aimed at stopping individuals and groups from corrupting Ohio elections with false voter registrations, fraudulent absentee ballots, and harassment of voters at polling places.
