Hamilton County Common Pleas Court Judge Robert Ruehlmann ruled that voters should have an extra 90 minutes to vote today because Hamilton County Board of Elections’ new electronic voter ID system (Electronic Poll Books) did not work properly at all locations.
Ohio Secretary of State John Husted issued this order following the judge’s ruling:
Voting locations in Hamilton County ONLY to remain open until 9:00 PM; No County may release statewide election results until 9:00 PM.
