Portage County votes to drop sheriff security at polls
Portage County elections board voted 3-1 to remove the sheriff's department from in person absentee voting security amid social media posts by Sheriff Bruce Zuchowski. They cited intimidation concerns and plan to use private security or Ravenna police instead as critics accuse the sheriff of targeting voters and supporting migrants. Local Democrats filed complaints with state agencies and the ACLU called the remarks unconstitutional threats.
