Statement By Ohio Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell Regarding Challengers
COLUMBUS – Ohio Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell today issued the following statement regarding challengers at Ohio’s polling places.
“As Secretary of State, it is my responsibility to conduct Ohio’s elections in a manner as open and accessible as possible, consistent with the absolute requirements of integrity and fairness. Ohio’s bipartisan system of election administration has served us well over the years by conducting transparent and balanced elections. Unfortunately, some of our longstanding procedures have come under litigation in the last couple of days. Specifically, suits have been filed against the statutes that allow parties to place challengers in polling places. While I do not agree there is any discriminatory intent or result from these statutes, I do believe a full airing of the issues cannot be completed prior to Tuesday’s election.
“Therefore, I have instructed the Attorney General to offer the following recommendation to the federal courts in Hamilton and Summit counties for resolution of these matters now: All challengers of all parties shall be excluded from polling places throughout the state.
“Following the election, I will institute litigation bringing together all parties to resolve the statutory and constitutional issues so they may be fully litigated and determined once and for all.
“This action will allow Ohio’s dedicated, bipartisan election officials present in each polling place – Republicans and Democrats – to concentrate for the next four days on preparation for this important election without the distraction and uncertainties this litigation brings.”
There are laws about missed days and injury pay claims at your employment place
By law, you must be unable to work for seven days (including weekends and holidays) before you are eligible for temporary disability benefits. Benefits are retroactive to the first day. The seven days need not be consecutive. Please note that there is no similar waiting period to receive medical benefits or permanent disability benefits. Those benefits are due, if warranted, regardless of the number of lost workdays.
