Ohio lawmakers are pushing for changes that would make voter list maintenance more frequent and far more demanding.
The following article was originally published in the Ohio Capital Journal and published on News5Cleveland.com under a content-sharing agreement. A measure sponsored by Reps. Scott Wiggam, R-Wayne County, and Beth Lear, R-Galena, got an overhaul last week adding in documentary proof of citizenship requirements and moving list maintenance to a monthly rather than yearly process — their initial bill would’ve required checking the list weekly.
“The reason we have 137 only, sir, that we found on that noncitizen annual audit was because the screening criteria of our annual noncitizen audit practically requires that a noncitizen admit that they are a noncitizen,” Strbich said.Those screening criteria zero in on people who have twice indicated they aren’t citizens to the BMV, and importantly, have taken some voting action in between those two BMV interactions.
