I'm not clear on this.

I found this link:

Thanks for your help

1. I think this precludes removing
Blackwell because his is a statewide office.

Q.: Could an Ohio governor be removed through a recall election?
A.: No. Neither the Ohio constitution nor the Ohio Revised Code (ORC), Ohio’s collection of written laws, provide for recall elections for statewide offices. For this reason, Ohio voters cannot use recall to remove a governor.

3. Trust me, we would've recalled Gov. Taft two years ago if it were possible
He's totally worthless. Even his own party can't stand him.

4. There's gotta be a way to get rid of him
Think like Rove. Don't let a little thing like laws get in the way!

5. We need to find out....
In light of the use of a distinctively altered state seal on Blackwells campaign letters, It occurred to me if there is a similarly distinctive seal on those "official looking" letters sent out pre election day they might tie DELIBERATE fraud to Blackwell. I know Conyers has a copy of the disenfranchisement letter but i have not seen a copy on-line anywhere. We need to find out if there was a seal used on those letters. For example, if there is a change to the eagle in the false seal on Blackwell's campaign letter and this same change is shown on those false letters, this would be incriminating. It seems small, but all we need is something conclusive, it does not have to be huge. If it will spotlight him in fraud we have a start. Something to think about.
