2.) Make sure you’re able to identify yourself. They’ll still let you vote if you can’t (see #5), but being prepared is much more awesome and less time consuming.
3.) Do you know if you’re registered to vote, or even where you’re supposed to vote? The state of Ohio tells you in a rather roundabout way on the Board of Elections website.
4.) YES, SOME 17-YEAR-OLDS CAN VOTE! *Ahem* Per a very recent court ruling, if you’re currently 17 and will turn 18 before the election, you have the right to vote in the March 15 primary.
5.) If you’re name doesn’t appear on the official poll list for some reason, or you have no forms of ID on you, you may still be able to vote via a provisional ballot. Don’t worry, it happens. Here are some scenarios where this might occur and how to deal with it.
With all that said, happy voting.

The corrupt media has influenced our election process by molding public opinion with lies for far too long; accusations of racism are always their nuclear option. Trump doesn’t have a single racist bone in his body, but my wife thinks he’s the most racist pig on the planet because she is a low information voter who depends on hearsay (unfortunately, not from me…lol).
The media, just like our politicians, are funded by wealthy interests who control and use them to maintain the status quo and undermine the democratic process. Search for and watch the video “the untruth about Donald Trump” to observe the underhanded tactics they use. They haven’t been able to destroy Donald SO FAR (even after labeling him as being the next Hitler), but they have consistently destroyed the campaigns of every decent candidate for decades.
If you want change, you have to elect people who are NOT paid-for stooges; in order to do that, you HAVE to have an informed public who can’t be influenced by paid-for stooges. Stay informed and do your own research; don’t be a lemming!
Kasich and Clinton support NAFTA and are corporate-owned mouthpieces for free trade.
It doesn’t take a genius to understand that a global free-trade market means that workers making $20/hr will have to compete with workers making $1/hr. An equilibrium must ultimately be achieved just like in any system and, in this case, that essentially means that American workers will be working for no more than the minimum wage set by law when all is said and done. Unfortunately, countries without minimum wage laws will still offer lower labor costs than us, which means that those minimum wage jobs won’t even be available here in the US when the dust finally settles from this. Anyone who says anything else concerning free-trade is either lying through their teeth, or is a completely clueless idiot. “Free-trade” comes at a huge cost to workers in developed countries.
Kasich is a gullible optimist who is completely oblivious to reality. He doesn’t appreciate the problems we are facing; in fact, he is completely blind to them. Kasich would continue the status quo of sending productive jobs to third-world countries, allowing illegal immigration to lower our education and living standards, and saddling our children with insurmountable debt. Then, when Americans are angry with him, he will say “golly gee whiz, the voters just don’t seem to realize I’m a ‘Jolt Cola’ in a world of Coke and Pepsi choices.”
The harsh truth is that Kasich lacks the critical thinking skills and skepticism needed to avoid being a complete tool. When Trump says America is run by incompetent idiots, people like Kasich are exactly who he is talking about.
Ohio has the 4th highest debt per capita out of all the states, despite its oil resources, and you think Kasich would do a better job on the federal level? Wake up!

Super-PACs must be banned! They give a few wealthy people the ability to shape our entire political system; they allow for absurdly unequal representation! The people funding these PACs are people who have acquired their wealth from selling out America through political favors, endless wars, unfair trade deals, exploiting foreign labor, exploiting illegal labor within our borders, and creating insurmountable debt for our children. Super-PACs are a direct conflict of interest and an absolute corrupting force!
In my opinion, any candidate who doesn’t denounce their super-PACs is a SNAKE, and a flat out TRAITOR to America! Establishment tools Clinton, Cruz, Kasich, and Rubio should denounce super-PACs like Trump and Sanders have; if they don’t, then F them!
