Ohio: Ohio Secretary of State chats up possible voting changes – ending “Golden Week” | newsnet5.com

The Ohio Secretary of State has a goal for 2012, to not be in the national spotlight. “That’s why you see us in early 2011 working through all the issues that we foresee on our doorstep in November of 2012,” said Jon Husted. “The last thing in the world that I ever want to be is the focus of any 2012 election.”

So Hosted is busy getting ready to institute changes that will likely come from two bills making their way through the state house and senate that will change the way people vote in Ohio. “For over 200 years, we voted on Tuesdays and now we’re trying to, over the last 10 years, perfect this early-voting process,” Husted said.
