Early voting is under way at the Medina County Board of Elections. (Sam Boyer, special to cleveland.com)

BRUNSWICK, Ohio -- I’ve been baffled by the people running for office around the country who demand we go back to paper ballots. Then I realize that maybe they aren’t old enough to remember what it was like.

I can remember waiting all night for even the very first results when there were far fewer people in most places. Imagine how crazy that would make the folks that think we should have everything wrapped up by a few hours after the polls close.
