I'd always wondered about Ohio's election process so I signed on for an interim position to work this 2016 election period to see how it works from the inside. Did it again for the 2017 election as well and I'm happy to report that the process has been streamlined from last year. 2018 was even better!The County starts by hiring 6,000 temporary employees, and this number is whittled down as the process goes. Only a select few are chosen for post-election certification work in Voter History, and I'm proud to say my team of 11 was the final team dismissed only when the election was pronounced "Certified" by the Board on November 23rd. . Great experience, and I advise anyone curious about the election process to apply for the next election.
