Today is Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2018. Here’s what you need to know:
Good morning,
If you haven’t cast your vote in Ohio’s general elections, today is your last chance.
Ohioans will be able to vote for the state’s next governor who will replace Gov. John Kasich. Steve Stivers, R-Upper Arlington, and Rick Neal, D-Columbus, are vying for the seat to represent Ohio’s 15th Congressional District. Republican Jay Edwards is looking to keep his seat in the Statehouse as Democrat Taylor Sappington tries to take it.
Also on the ballot in Athens is a proposed school levy to rebuild and renovate Athens City School District. Issue 3 has created some controversy, according to previous Post reports.
Issue 1, a statewide issue, would reduce criminal penalties for obtaining, possessing and using drugs.
Those registered to vote in Athens can do so in Baker University Center’s ballroom, located on the fourth floor. Voting hours are from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.
