    I’m not disputing the rules, they just seem so damn archaic at this point. The digital era made a lot of this redundant. Got my social? The government knows who I am. Got my current ID? The government knows who I am.

      If this person can’t follow the law/rules on the APPLICATION, why would they be trusted to follow the rules when/if they are elected to office.

      But if it’s on the form and required, isn’t it the candidates fault for not following procedure? They just blatantly didn’t follow the rules. You shouldn’t complain about rules after you break them and if you know about them in advance.

            So, all relevant law should be listed in full on every piece of government paperwork?

            Because I would think the first thing you’d do when wanting to run for office is check what the requirements are and what to do when you register and what conditions are on that.

            I’d look up the form to see if there’s any mention of it, but the Ohio SoS website is offline.
