Join us in our captivating dialogue with the dynamic Greer Aeschbury, Ohio\'s senior campaign manager with All Voting is Local Action. She provides her expert perspective on the essential work the Ohio Voter Rights Coalition is doing to ensure voting accessibility and fairness. Together, we dive deep into their battle against State Issue 1 and the repercussions of the new voter ID law.

\\n

A significant part of our discussion centers on the implications of Ohio\'s collaboration ban. We unravel how it adversely affects poll worker recruitment, voter registration, and voter education. Despite claims from the Secretary of State that the law is an anti-fraud measure, it\'s clear that it\'s hampering the Board of Elections\' ability to cooperate effectively with community groups. We take a moment to laud the fundamental work of poll workers and encourage you, our listeners, to take an active part in this process.

\\n

As we round up our discussion, we give a nod to the upcoming special election on August 8th. It\'s a chance for Ohio\'s citizens to protect their constitutional rights, so be sure to cast your \'no\' vote. We also explore the challenges in requesting and returning ballots, and the necessity of visiting your board of elections in person. With the help of the Ohio Voter Rights Coalition, we emphasize the importance of spreading the word and getting involved. Tune in to be part of this enlightening discussion and make a difference in promoting accessible and fair voting.
