WOOD COUNTY, OH – All Voting is Local State Director Kayla Griffin released the following statement following the announcement that one person challenged the voter eligibility of 16,924 people to find that only three had to be removed because they passed away:

“This was a waste of time … a waste of resources … a waste of effort … a waste of taxpayers’ dollars … and a waste of election officials’ energy and capacity. We have got to call this what it is: absurd, ridiculous, annoying, disruptive, harmful, conspiratorial, and a disservice to neighbors, communities, public servants, and voters. We wouldn’t even be in this situation if our state had continued participating in ERIC and some of our leaders weren’t playing into the election denial handbook and spreading disinformation about our elections. We have to let election officials do their jobs, and we have to let eligible voters vote.”
