    This is why the person running elections shouldn't be backing a ballot issue. @FrankLaRose, when one group made a mistake you told the board to make them fill out new forms. When the group aligned with your position made the same mistake you told the board to accept the forms.
    FALSE. As much as I don’t want to give a biased, irresponsible reporter attention, I can’t let lies about our election process go unchecked.

    Today is my last at WOSU. Focusing on two good things on my way out the door… The knot of young reporters and editors I got to work with. So proud of y’all and how you're taking on new challenges. And of course, the folks who let us tell their stories. It’s meant the world!

    Just re-downloaded the Ross County Voter File from the Secretary's website. It still shows you pulled a Dem ballot in the Primary election, 5/4/2010.
    You really stepped in some shit, @nckevns. You're toast, buddy. Hope you're ready. I HAVE NEVER VOTED IN ROSS COUNTY IN MY LIFE, and you say I voted in FOUR ELECTIONS? You cannot get this much right, how in the hell can anyone believe ANYTHING in your story? I was IN HIGH SCHOOL

    Here’s @Scott_Wiggam saying the quiet part out loud… Why an August special election for a potential supermajority requirement? Not only does GOP want to stymie the repro rights amendment, the party worries Nov. election could make it harder to overturn repro amend later.
    Replying to @MorganTrau
    UPDATE: Rep. Scott Wiggam responds after Speaker Stephens removed him from chair. He quotes my story from Jan, in which I revealed the deal between Dems and Stephens’ camp. “You have worked to stop HJR1 at every turn.” @WEWS @OhioCapJournal news5cleveland.com/news/politics/…
