Tuesday’s an election day in Ohio, but very few voters in southwest Ohio will find that their polling places are open.
Ohio has 88 counties, but there are only 12 issues on the ballot in 11 of those counties.
In southwest Ohio, only Hamilton and Clermont counties have ballot issues; and only in three communities.
In Hamilton County, Mt. Healthy residents will decide a 1.5 mill renewal levy for street repair and construction. St. Bernard voters have a seven mill renewal levy for current operating expenses.
In Clermont County, the village of Bethel has an additional eight mill levy for police protection on the ballot.
Only polling places in those communities with issues on the ballot will be open Tuesday. The polls will be open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.
