Our Election Protection program is nonpartisan and not affiliated with any campaign or party.
We recruit and train volunteer poll monitors who do not enter the polling place, except in limited circumstances. As a nonpartisan poll monitor, you will stand (or be in a car) outside of the polling places, reporting any problems you see and helping ensure voters know their rights, report and solve issues that arise at the polling places.
We also maintain voter assistance hotlines in multiple languages to connect voters with trained, legal assistance:

The Ohio Secretary of State's office has released the names of voters who could be removed from Ohio's voter database on July 22. This can happen when voters haven't participated in elections in the last 4 years or if they moved and didn't update their voter registration address. Occasionally, it might even happen as a mistake, so it's important to check no matter what. Are you on the purge list? Better yet, verify that you are on the active voter list.
The Ohio Channel is a service of Ohio's public broadcasting stations, giving every Ohio resident the opportunity to witness, first hand, our state government in action.
