Poll workers in the county will be checking voters in with paper pollbooks, after Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose announced an investigation into a voter check-in tablet purchased by the Perry County Board of Elections.
According to a news release from Mr. LaRose’s office, local elections officials notified the state office of the newly purchased tablet when it discovered that it violates Ohio’s election security standards. The tablet had not been used in an election.
“While this investigation is limited right now to a single device in one county, I’m taking the precautionary step of ordering my team to review all voter check-in systems for compliance with our security directives ahead of the May election,” Mr. LaRose wrote in a statement. “As an added precaution, I’m directing the boards of elections who use this specific style of pollbook to use paper pollbooks for the May election.”

Today, Clint talks with Wood County Health Department Commissioner Ben Robison about a story published this past weekend in the Toledo Blade about potential groundwater contamination near the old beryllium site in Luckey, Ohio.
Authorities in Ohio plan to test the groundwater supply across a village near a former weapons plant after a newspaper investigation published Friday found high levels of radioactivity in samples taken at a school, athletic field, library and other sites.
The Army Corps of Engineers has been removing tons of contaminated soil from the Cold War-era site since 2018 and has long maintained that residential areas were not affected by the work.
However, The Blade in Toledo said its tests showed radioactivity levels 10 times higher than normal in water from a drinking fountain at Eastwood Middle School, 45 times higher than normal at the Luckey Library and 1,731 times higher than normal at a water pump near athletic fields.
“We’ve got to get to the bottom of this,” said Lt. Col. Robert Burnham, commander of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Buffalo District, which oversees the cleanup.
Nineteen of the 39 samples collected by the newspaper from well water across Luckey — at homes, businesses, and public places — showed radioactivity at least 10 times greater than what the federal government calls normal for the area, the newspaper said. The Blade hired an accredited private lab to conduct the testing.
