How did a "Write In" vote work in Ohio?
I was curious if someone could give me some insight on how a write in vote works? Specifically curious about how it was done on the Danaher voting system in Franklin County Ohio? Any info would be greatly appreciated...

1. We had a write in in Hamilton County due to prosecutor sex scandal
the write in went on the back of the punchcard ballot. I heard some people had written on the flip page book used in the punchcard systems and they had to cover it up with tape.

2. In the counties using "Microvote"

Pickaway is one, they pushed a button and a window in the machine
opened, allowing them to write on a paper roll.
