On Nov. 5, the United States enters one of its most formidable traditions: the presidential general election. In a fashion that is unique to the U.S., elections are generally more frequent and contain an expansive list of candidates and issues ranging from the federal to the local level.
The Observer created this ballot guide to explain the six-page ballot that Ohio voters will face on election day.
