Americans are blessed to have a “government of the people, by the people, and for the people.” But our form of government has one key requirement: our participation.

The most basic participation is voting, yet it can also have the most profound impact. When you vote, you help determine who will lead our nation, make our laws and protect our liberties.

More than a right, voting is a privilege that millions of people in other parts of the world can only dream about. Still, many Americans choose not to vote. Our hope is that OhioElectionCentral.com will encourage you to participate.

As we see it, the goal of OhioElectionCentral.com is three-fold:

1. Inform you what races will be on your ballot, and who the candidates in those races are who filled out an OEC questionnaire.
2. Provide candidates the opportunity to inform you where they stand on important values questions.
3. Provide you the information necessary to contact candidates directly.
   
   You can read the actual questionnaires sent to the judicial and non-judicial candidates by clicking on the appropriate link. (Adobe Reader required.)

If you are interested in researching issues that will appear on your ballot, please click on "Find Your Officials" button at the left and scroll down to your county board of elections for that information.
