Tuesday is D-Day in Schmidt-Wulsin race
Clermont and Hamilton counties are expected to finish counting about 6,300 provisional ballots Tuesday in time to certify election results.
Late today, U.S. Rep. Jean Schmidt led Democrat Victoria Wulsin by 3,107 votes, a net gain of 242 votes after uncounted absentee, military and provisional ballots were included in the totals of five of seven counties in the 2nd Congressional District.
Wulsin must win about two-thirds of the uncounted ballots to pull close enough for an automatic recount. She has refused to concede, saying every vote must be counted.
Earlier today, U.S. Rep. Deborah Pryce was declared the winner in the 15th Congressional District. But the Upper Arlington Republican suffered a net loss of 2,482 to Democrat Mary Jo Kilroy when provisional votes were counted, triggering an automatic recount.

My friend in Clermont County still doesn't know whether her vote counted.
The board of elections claims her 60-day notice bounced, even though she's resided at the same residence for 17 years!
A big thanks to Wulsin for insisting that every vote be counted.
Did you have any problems voting? Our incoming Secretary of State wants to know.

Now that John Cranley has moved to Mt. Lookout is he preparing to run against her meanness in 2008?
LOL! Bring him on, baby!
Will Dr. Wells AKA Dr. Wulsin finally admit that she lost after she is formally declared the loser? Either way, it is irrelevant.
I love all these folks who think that there is Republican bias in the Boards of Elections. Each Board is made up of two Republicans and two Democrats. If there were shenannigans, wouldn't it stand to reason that one of the Democrats on the Boards of Elections would say something?
I really did not plan to run in 2008 but if John Cranley is going to be the Democratic candidate, then so am I.
