Ohio House 37th: Fogle (D) Gets Himself On the Ballot
As reported by the excellent blog Dayton Politics, former TV news host Guy Fogle (D) has gotten himself onto the November ballot through a write-in campaign, foiling the disqualification of his ballot petition by the incumbent and Speaker of the House, Rep. John Husted (R-Kettering):
"... Fogle was successful in capturing the necessary votes to gain the Democrat nomination. Fogle will create the first real challenge for Husted at a time when Husted in highly vulerable. Husted will be forced to answer to the voters of the 37th District for his frequent ethical lapses and his penchant for raising taxes on small business owners and working families.
This race could be easily turn into the upset that catches everyone by surprise."
The 37th District in Montgomery County. Husted defeated Democratic candidate John "Bummer-Of-A-Name" Shady in 2004 by 65.01% to 34.99% of the vote.

You are quoting a blog that didnt quote its sources. Ask the BOE and they will tell you that the ballots cast have been impounded and not certified until the protest hearing has been completed as directed by the Secretary of States office.
Hopefully, that hearing will take place on November 16, 2007!
ANOTHER DEMOCRAT / DEMOGAUGE [WHO HAS NO BUSINESS RUNNING]EMBARRESMENT!!!
Anonymous commenters - The Secretary of State web site confirms Fogle as the Democratic primary winner as a write-in candidate.
You will notice that the SOS website shows no ballots cast for the Write in Candidate.
This could mean two things.
The process of his challenge isnt complete.
Or.
He received no write in votes.
I am pretty sure it is the former.
