Loveland, Ohio – Late Tuesday,Ā Hamilton County Common Pleas Court Judge Robert Ruehlmann ruled that voters should have an extra 90 minutes to vote because Hamilton County Board of ElectionsāĀ new [quote_box_right]Bailey Elected – Fitzgerald and Settle retain Loveland Council seats[/quote_box_right]electronic voter IDĀ system (Electronic Poll Books) did not work properly at all locations, including Loveland. It was also a failure of poll workers not using the traditional paper-bound-book of registered voters that voters have been so familiar – with when they realized the machines wereĀ not doing their job.
After the court ruling, Ohio Secretary of State John Husted issued this order:
Voting locations in Hamilton County ONLY to remain open until 9:00 PM; No County may release statewide election results until 9:00 PM.
It wasn’t until after 1 AM Wednesday morning that Hamilton County had counted all of the votes cast in Loveland.
Those who took advantage of the extended voting hours had to cast “Provisional Ballots” that will not be counted for another 10 days.

Loveland school district board memberĀ Kathryn LorenzĀ issued this statement about serving another four years. She and Art Jarvis ran un-opposed for the two open seats.
Although it is much simpler running unopposed in the 2015 election than it was running in a very contested race for my first term in 1991, it is a no less important effort. I am honored to be able to serve Loveland students and staff and look forward to working for Loveland citizens for the next four years. I still believe that public education is a cornerstone of our American democracy. Ā – Kathy Lorenz
