Write in question

[shirlden]

Lee Fisher lost this election the day he was chosen by the Ohio Dem party over Brunner. Because he is a lost cause, I intend to write in Brunner for Senator. I also have several friends and family who will do the same. Question......will write ins get counted and posted? I thought Ohio changed some laws regarding write in votes.

1. Contact the Secretary of State?

Ok, I am being a wise guy. There is a way to write in a candidate for *any* race, IIRC.

2. I was for jen too

still not happy with Fisher but I'm gonna vote for him over Portman.

Write ins usually get posted in the aggregate - it might be recorded at the local BOE but in the reporting, your write in vote for Brunner will be reported as "other" or "write-in" along with "Snoopy" and "Bon Jovi".

3. I gave Brunner nearly $1,000 and very much dislike Chris Redfern and the Ohio Dem

Party machine and I still voted for Lee Fisher.

How could it hurt?

Besides, getting Redfern replaced as party chair seems like a worth while effort.

4. Not just Redfern

We have nothing but Dino bureaucrats in our Ohio Dem leadership. We need to concentrate on a new Dem party in Ohio before next election.

5. I agree. The key is to put pressure on the Dem Central Committee members. They are the ones that

hold the cards.

6. the ODP has one of the biggest GOTV operations in the country

GOTV may win Strickland's reelection.
The ODP isn't all bad.

7. I understand

your discord but I voted for Fisher even though I too backed Bruner. I refuse to go down without a fight and Fisher needs every vote he can get.
