Polling places for July 13 Special primary election for OH-3

Originally published Jun 10 2010- updated today, 12 July 2010

The four polling places in Montgomery County will be:

I’ll have physical addresses later- along with polling times and rules.

To determine where to vote in Montgomery county- use their “Finder” http://www.mcohio.org/boe/voter_information/polling_location_finder.cfm

Polls will be open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., please bring valid ID. You can vote early today at the Montgomery County BOE in the basement of the Montgomery County Building: 451, W. Third Street, Dayton OH 45481 until 4 p.m.

The three candidates are: David Esrati (you’re on my site), Guy N. Fogle 10484 South Union Rd., Dayton, 45342, and Joe Roberts 308 E. Dorothy Lane, Dayton, 45419. No other petitions turned in.

This is to elect a Democrat to the November ballot to face Republican incumbent Mike R. Turner in OH-3 for Congress.

If you want to vote absentee (it’s too late to request absentee)- they will have a request for the form online at: http://www.mcohio.org/boe/voter_information/absentee_voting/absenteeform.cfm

Note THIS SITE IS NOT SECURE- therefore, I recommend only enter your birthday or any other non-secure info (leave out your driver’s license and last 4) then print it out- and fill those in by hand. Believe it or not- to receive a ballot- they insist on a original signature. Then make sure you mail it to the correct board of elections (the form will work in Warren, Highland or Clinton County).

If you don’t have the money for a stamp, you can call 937-228-4433 and I’ll be out to pick it up and hand deliver to the BOE. I’m now told only immediate family may deliver ballots or requests. I’ll supply postage if need be. Same goes for your ballots. This process is a way to disenfranchise poor voters who can’t find transportation to the polls or afford postage.

I will offer to drive people to polls- call 228-4433 to schedule.

We are still waiting for the Montgomery County Board of Elections to certify the names to go on the ballot- at their meeting tomorrow, Friday, 11 June, 2010, at their 1 p.m. board meeting.

UPDATE

The bid to print the notification mailing was closed yesterday at 9:30 a.m. Bids were taken off the Montgomery County printing vendor list.

The Montgomery County BOE has to invest in new electronic poll books, and ballot on demand printers to pull this off. This process has never been done before. How well the results will stand up to legal scrutiny after the fact will be interesting.

Warren County will have its normal polling places open – for the parts of Warren that are in OH-3 You can find what Congressional district you are in here: http://voterfind.tzo.org/warrenoh/vtrlookup.aspx

You can early vote today: 406 Justice Drive Lebanon, OH 45036-2394 (513) 261-1358 Until 4:00 pm.
