Most Ohio voters confident in election process
Most Ohio likely voters are confident that the state’s election process produces fair outcomes and believe that their 2008 presidential ballot will be counted accurately.
However, Republican likely voters express more confidence in the process than do Democratic likely voters in a new Ohio Poll, sponsored by the University of Cincinnati, released on Tuesday, Sept. 16.
The poll was taken in the wake of the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections in which voters from each party debated the fairness of each election.
Also, this year Republicans have battling Democratic Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner over several issues. A Republican-supported lawsuit has challenged a Brunner directive that says for six days Ohio law allows people to simultaneously register to vote and cast an absentee ballot.
In the poll, 84 percent of likely voters are “very confident” or “somewhat confident” that the election process produces fair outcomes. The percentage for Republicans was 95 percent and for Democrats 78 percent.
