This Tuesday, thousands of proud, freedom-loving Americans in Pickaway County will take a moment to exercise a sacred, God-given right—the right to vote. Here in Ohio, we have an election system that upholds the highest standards of integrity. Only eligible citizens can cast a ballot, with strict safeguards in place against fraud and constant oversight from both sides to keep the process transparent and fair. Every candidate and issue has a level playing field, and we’ll see the results promptly for all but the closest races.
This kind of system doesn’t just happen. It’s possible because of real patriots—our hardworking neighbors, retirees, and high school seniors—who volunteer to make sure our elections are honest and trustworthy. They’re not political insiders; they’re everyday Americans who love this country and want to serve.
When you vote, take a moment to thank these poll workers and the Board of Elections staff who make our democracy possible. Consider volunteering next time to help protect and defend the integrity of our elections. Let me finish by saying: thank you for voting, vote Republican, and God bless America!
Travis Ricketts
Chairman of the Pickaway County Republican Party
