Not only is there nowhere to put it on the petition, but it isn’t included in the secretary of state’s 2024 candidate guide. It hasn’t been on any candidate guides in recent years.
WEWS/OCJ reached out to the office with numerous clarifying questions, like why the name change isn’t included in the 33-page guide, but did not hear back.
So. They couldn’t find anyone else that had to do it, even other candidates who transitioned…
The form doesn’t even have a place for it…
And the 33 page guide doesn’t mention it…
So why is it an issue here?
I feel like this part is the real reason:
Joy is also the stepdaughter of state Rep. Bill Roemer (R-Richfield), but the two do not have a relationship and have never met. Although the Republican hasn’t sponsored or cosponsored legislation impacting the trans community, he has voted in favor of legislation banning trans youth from having gender-affirming care and participating in athletics. He is one of the Republicans she wants to fight back against.
You are a liar saying only this one person is targeted. There is no one else that has done this without including both names.
Any person who has been elected under the person’s changed name, without submission of the person’s former name, shall be immediately suspended from the office and the office declared vacated, and shall be liable to the state for any salary the person has received while holding such office.
Let me know who, because they will owe Ohio taxpayers quite a sum.
Seeing how you immediately suspect someone of lying rather than simply misunderstanding something speaks volumes to the the objective fact that you are a moron.
At least two of the other trans candidates running also didn’t know the law, and didn’t include their dead names, but both were certified by their boards
any person desiring to become a candidate for public office has had a change of name within five years immediately preceding the filing of the person’s declaration of candidacy, the person’s declaration of candidacy and petition shall both contain, immediately following the person’s present name, the person’s former names.(6) This does not apply to a name change due to marriage.(7)
Any other candidates that didn’t include legal name change with 5 years, if elected, will be removed from office. (1)
You don’t need a special place on form, the law is very clear. The petition and declaration of candidacy shall contain both names where it says name.
(Edit) you are correct the 33 page booklet does not include reference to 3513.271. But the actually petition forms do other than the literal 2 page petition.
The anger in your response and the fact that you feel the need to literally insult someone indicates that you feel very insecure on this subject and don’t have arguments to back up your position.
Last week I got sent some propaganda, printed like a newspaper to make it seem legitimate, especially to older folks. Articles about how BLM, Antifa, and John Legend (Ohio native that moved to 😡 California) are coming for Ohioans and our way of life by supporting not changing our constitution.
They probably used the same organizations they setup to do similar mailings in Illinois to kill a proposed progressive income tax (successfully, unfortunately) and prevent collective bargaining for government workers (failing spectacularly).
The part that makes no sense to me about that argument is that the measure has nothing to do with money or even out of state money. For the life of me I don’t know why people are allowed to donate to campaigns on issues that don’t affect them directly, but issue 1 had absolutely nothing to do with money.
You’ll find that almost no right wing legislation ever gets argued for on it’s face. There are always these obfuscations to make it look like it’s about something entirely unrelated.
Everyone I talked to said they wanted to ban abortion, so take it with a grain of salt. I had to explain that taking power from people in order to get their way is a bad thing.
@BoneALisa@butter Oh, you should vote more! There's all sorts of fun things on the ballot this fall. We've got marijuana legalization and abortion rights as ballot issues, plus school boards and municipal governments. https://ballotpedia.org/Ohio_elections,_2023
Big shout out to the corrupt ass Ohio GOP, we wouldn’t have had this record breaking August turn out with out your shady ass tactics. See you bitches in November! 🖕
Nah man when there’s a terrorist threat or some kids are getting fesity we call up those smitty brothers down on farmdale ave. I’ve seen em hit smack in the middle of grandma’s can o beans from a mile and a half away in the rain – i swears it!
The police don’t just pull farm boys with a crack shot every time they have a sporting event. They are fucking cops. Not only cops, but specialty cops. SWAT cunts. My homie is one - went from infantry to ranger to police to swat. Yeah - he’s a cunt, too. ACAB.
Just because you can’t read Chinese doesn’t mean it was spam.
Industry standard tiananamen square copy pasta that gets Chinese propaganda pushers in trouble with Winnie The Pooh. You realize how this looks for you and this instance right?
Look, can we start this over? I don’t like how this played out and I too was getting bent out of shape for what was likely good-intentions.
I’d understand if you were still upset and needed some time yet, totally fine
Lemmy is supposed to be better than Reddit culture, and be more civilized, and I feel like this was a fail here. I’d like to try again and maybe we can have some civil discourse about this if you’re up for it
Maybe? I don’t know if that’s worth the time though. Even if no rifle exists up there they could bring one up whenever. I’m sure there is security footage though of them hauling supplies in.
TIL spotters like to use one normal sized spotting scope alongside another one that’s the size of a rifle with a cover on it. Doesn’t make sense to me but I’m no spotter.
The guy who posted that is pretty well known in this instance for being a reliable information source on events happening in Ohio. They’re not just a random user.
Anyone who shot people “in self defense” wouldn’t be smiling on a poster that advertises a national tour to make money off of the tragedy. Hell, I’d be in therapy for years if I was ever placed in a situation where I had to kill in self-defense.
This is a psychopath who went there wanting to kill people, and he’s reveling in it.
Hes not smiling because he shot someone. Hes smiling because conservative media is paying him absurd amounts of money to be their golden boy poster child. He was, and still is, just a dumb kid and I gaurantee you someone else has written for him whatever hes going to say at that event.

Nah, having killed someone totally makes the little shitstain hard.
Yes, this is my sentiment too. An ignorant teen who got into an unfortunate situation, and now his only purpose in life is to be mouthpiece for facist propaganda.
He travelled interstate to get a gun and went to that protest because…?
He put himself in that position, killed two people, maimed another, for his sins, he’s now being paid as the right’s posterchild for killing you political opponents - you’ll have to forgive me for not feeling too bad for him.
Travelling interstate to grab a gun and put yourself in a position to shoot others with the flimsiest of legal (definitely not moral) pretexts isn’t self-defence.
”So, my concern would be, ‘Hey, let’s make sure we’re representing Christ well in all of this.’ We’re a church, you know. This is what we do,” Avell said.
Republican Jesus has taken over the US Supreme Court, while following the teachings of the actual Jesus gets you charged with a crime.
Every day the corrupt stray further from the light of God. It’s not even a religious concept. Just be a good person. That’s all Jesus ever asked, and it’s the same thing an ethics professor will tell you. Just choose to be good.
Why is it so hard? And why do so many evil people, especially fallen religious people, obsess about punishing people who choose to be good and loving in their little corners of the world? Why is that even your business?
Jesus didn't just ask people to be good. If you really delve into the new testament with a critical eye, you may notice that Jesus was a bit of a dick throughout. He calls people derogatory names, condemns innocent and unknowing souls to an eternity in hell to prove a point and force others to follow him, he is a total copyright troll; flipping tables and condemning followers who make a buck selling Jesus merch, he's a classic mooching street urchin character who convinces working men to give up on their careers to become vagabond beggars, and you gotta be a huge narcissist to do the whole 'eat of my flesh and drink ofy blood' bit. Really, Jesus' followers are exactly like him; control freaks with NPD and a grudge against humanity for not following them blindly, who make themselves victims to prove a point.
It’s more than one time. A good number of churches actually run soup kitchens, donate to those in need, and are inclusive to all. I’m not religious, I just feel like these kinds of churches aren’t as well represented in media. That being said, just like people, churches can be as charitable as they are intolerant.
I helped my grandma run an area soup kitchen for a few days as a kid. Just like homeless shelters most people don’t notice them because they don’t need that service. Shit I had no idea we did that before I actually helped out
Thank God they've prevented her running. Imagine if she'd won!
It would have caused rampant inflation, fundamentally undermined democracy, accelerated the timeline of the climate apocalypse, increased school shootings, made health insurance prohibitively expensive, made the US have a poorly performing healthcare system despite outspending other developed countries up to 4 times, caused rampant immigration, and cost tens of thousands of jobs.
Anyone can run, they just need to include both names if you legally changed name in last 5 years. It’s probably past the deadline for petitions like primary though.
