Get the Skinny on the Candidates

Sue Altmeyer, Electronic Services Librarian, sue.altmeyer@law.csuohio.edu | February 13, 2008 - 16:11

Cleveland Marshall's Democratic Law Organization (D-LO) held a very informative presentation today highlighting the similarities and differences between presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. For those who missed it, check out D-LO's powerpoint presentation. At the end of the presentation, links for more information are provided. There are links such as 2decide.com ,an independent source with information on both Democrat and Republican candidates.

Professor S. Candice Hoke spoke concerning how you can make sure your vote counts. One suggestion for absentee ballots was to find out how your signature is registered at the Board of Elections. For example, you may use your initial or spell out your first name. If the signature on your absentee ballot does not match the signature on file with the Board of Elections, your ballot can be rejected.

You may also want to look at Judge4Yourself.com ,which has ratings of the candidates for judicial office running in the 2008 contested Democratic primaries. (All the Republican candidates for judicial office have no opposition) Local bar associations surveyed their members to obtain the ratings.
