Those who wish to see Ohio return to a relatively fraud-proof, tamper-proof elections process — something the state had until late 2005, when a Republican General Assembly passed legislation allowing early voting and no-excuses absentee balloting — will find little to cheer about in either candidate.
It’s unlikely that Turner or Husted will face primary challenges, or that a credible third-party general-election contender will appear.
