COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) — A proposal by
Ohio’s elections chief to
attach postage to every
mail-in ballot failed to
gain crucial approval
Monday, making it all
but impossible for ballots to be stamped in
time for the November
election.
Secretary of State
Frank LaRose’s fellow
Republicans on the
state’s powerful Controlling Board led the
charge against him,
with the panel voting
4-2 along party lines to
reject the request.

Staff Report

“This should be a
legislative issue,” said
GOP state Sen. Bob
Peterson, voicing the
key argument that sank
the spending appeal.
State Sen. Bill Coley,
another Republican,
said LaRose’s request
was going beyond the
authority given to his
ofﬁce by lawmakers and
asking them to “look the
other way.”
LaRose had asked the
board to approve $3 million in funds from his
ofﬁces Business Services

COVID IMPACTING OFFICIALS
Peterson, the No. 2 leader in the Senate, attended the
hearing while recovering from COVID-19, said Senate
spokesman John Fortney. His illness has required
Senate President Larry Obhof to quarantine. Another
Ohio state senator, Republican, Frank Hoagland, has

cause of the recession,”

Ohio Capital Journal

Jon Husted said businesses traditionally keep
customers and workers
safe, “but they’re not
accustomed to doing it
on the ﬂy during a pandemic.”
The law shields businesses retroactive to the
start of the pandemic,
when health guidance was
changing quickly. Husted
said HB 606 is needed
because of the ﬂuid situation in the spring, but he
also seemed to imply that
customers and employees
would be safer if it was
harder to sue the organizations where they got
sick.
Businesses “were looking for some security,
some predictability in
the law to make sure that
they could keep their
workplaces safe and avoid
liability so they could
bring people back to work

and House Bill 606 provides that predictability
and security,” Husted
said.
But a majority of the
panel of economists
surveyed said passage
of the business-friendly
bill isn’t likely to beneﬁt the economy or the
public health. Of the 36
members of the Ohio
Economic Experts Panel
who responded to the
survey, conducted by
Scioto Analysis, just
eight agreed that its passage would help the economic recovery. Another
17 said it likely wouldn’t
help with the recovery.
Ten others said they
were uncertain about the
law’s economic impact.
“The tradeoffs are
complicated and the
devil is in the details,”
commented Jonathan
Andreas of Bluffton Uni-

versity, one of the economists who said he was
uncertain. “Too little
responsibility encourages reckless behavior
but too much liability
can cause too much caution.”
The economists’
responses were even
more lopsided when
asked whether HB 606
would create incentives for businesses and
other organizations to
take actions that would
increase the spread of
COVID-19.
Twenty two panelists
said they believed the
law likely would create
such incentives. Another
ﬁve were uncertain and
six economists said they
didn’t think the new law
will make businesses act
more cavalierly toward
the new coronavirus.
One economist com-

mented that the threat
of legal action has
historically played an
important role in getting
businesses to emphasize
safety.
“The safe cars we
drive today are due to
lawsuits regarding negligence in the auto industry,” wrote Sucharita
Ghosh of the University
of Akron. “Companies
should be held to the
same standard for
COVID-19 cases.”

war deserters and draftevaders.
On this date:
In 1630, the Massachusetts
village of Shawmut changed
its name to Boston.
In 1810, Mexico began its
revolt against Spanish rule.
In 1966, the Metropolitan
Opera ofﬁcially opened its
new opera house at New
York’s Lincoln Center for the

In 1982, the massacre of
between 1,200 and 1,400
Palestinian men, women
and children at the hands
of Israeli-allied Christian
Phalange militiamen began
in west Beirut’s Sabra and
Shatila refugee camps.
In 1987, two dozen countries signed the Montreal
Protocol, a treaty designed
to save the Earth’s ozone
layer by calling on nations to
reduce emissions of harmful
chemicals by the year 2000.
In 1994, a federal jury in
Anchorage, Alaska, ordered
Exxon Corp. to pay $5 billion in punitive damages
for the 1989 Exxon Valdez

(val-DEEZ’) oil spill (the U.S
Supreme Court later reduced
that amount to $507.5 million). Two astronauts from
the space shuttle Discovery
went on the ﬁrst untethered

In 2001, President George
W. Bush, speaking on the
South Lawn of the White

get them running and hunt
them down.”
In 2005, President George

Cougars spoil opener for Rio women

For Ohio Valley Publishing

RIO GRANDE, Ohio
— Saturday night’s 2020
season opener clearly
didn’t go as University of
Rio Grande women’s soccer head coach Tony Daniels had hoped it would.
The homestanding
RedStorm were buried
by a scoring blitz late in
the opening half and went
on to suffer a 7-0 loss
at the hands of Mount
Vernon University in nonconference play at Evan
E. Davis Field.
The Cougars, who were
also playing their ﬁrst
game of the year, outshot
Rio 33-3 overall and 16-1
in shots on goal.
MVNU also tallied a

14-1 edge in corner kick
opportunities.
Sarah Townsend led
the offensive charge for
the visitors, coming off
the bench to ﬁnish with a
hat trick. Adison Preston
added a pair of assists in
the winning effort.
Mount Vernon bolted
to a 4-0 lead at the intermission, scoring all of its
markers before the break
in the ﬁnal 14:15 of the
period.
Preston earned her
assists on each of the ﬁrst
two markers, goals scored
just over a minute apart
by Maddie Critzer and
Ashley Townsend, before
Sarah Townsend netted
two of her three scores in
the ﬁnal 8:34 before the
break.

The lead grew to 5-0
when Alexa Skal scored
off a touch by Kayla Kalishuck just 12:34 into the
second stanza and Sarah
Guipe found the net just
85 seconds later via a
pass from Kaitlyn Meade
to push the lead to an
even half-dozen.
MVNU’s ﬁnal score
of night came with
21:54 left to play when
Townsend complete her
hat trick off a pass from
Caitlin Erlandson.
Lilly Jakuszewski and
Emily DePolo combined
for the clean sheet in
goal for the Cougars.
Jakuszewski started and
went the ﬁrst 75:27 in
net, collecting both the
win and the only save of
the contest.

Sophomore Rachelle
Wolford (Marysville,
OH) started in net and
took the loss for Rio
Grande, allowing the
four ﬁrst half goals and
recording four saves.
Freshman Morgen Nutter (Ashville, OH) also
had four saves for the
RedStorm, while allowing the three second half
goals.
Rio Grande will return
to action on Saturday
afternoon when it opens
River States Conference
play at Ohio Christian
University.
Kickoff is set for 2 p.m.
in Circleville.

For Ohio Valley Publishing

MARIAN, Ind. — Host Indiana Wesleyan University made good on a pair of second half scoring
opportunities and knocked off the University of
Rio Grande, 2-0, Saturday night, in non-conference
men’s soccer action at Wildcat Field.
The Wildcats were playing their season opening
contest.
Rio Grande slipped to 1-1 with the loss.
The RedStorm ﬁnished with nearly twice as
many overall shots as their hosts, 17-9, while also
enjoying a 6-4 edge in shots on goal and a 6-2
advantage in corner kick chances, but failed to put
the ball in the net.
IWU scored what proved to be the only goal
it would need just over 10-1/2 minutes into the
second period when Jeremy Baldes sent a pass
through the 18-yard box that teammate Hudson
Gongwer banged into the goal.
The Wildcats sealed the victory when Giuseppe
Santacroce scored off of a pass from Jonas Becari
with just 8:22 remaining in the contest.
Nathan Sharrett earned the shutout in goal for
the hosts, stopping six shots in the process.
Freshman Kieran Hodges (Hewish, England)
took the loss in his debut in net for Rio Grande.
He was credited with a pair of saves.
The RedStorm are scheduled to return to action
next Saturday when Lourdes University visits
Evan E. Davis Field for a 7 p.m. kickoff.

Defense, Snell, Big Ben carry Pittsburgh over Giants
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
(AP) — There was one overriding reason Ben Roethlisberger
worked so hard to return from a
major elbow injury.
His team.
Roethlisberger, who missed the
ﬁnal 14 games last season after
elbow surgery, threw for three
scores and the Pittsburgh Steelers
beat the New York Giants 26-16 at
an empty and eerie MetLife Stadium on Monday night. He also got
all the help he could ask for from
his defense and backup running
back Bennie Snell.
“I am excited we won the
game,” Roethlisberger said. “I
told the guys before the game it
is not about me individually. The

reason I came back is for these
guys, this team. It’s a special
group of football players, of men,
and I am just glad to be a part of
it.”
A key part of it, along with
several defensive plays and Snell’s
113 yards on 19 carries — his
ﬁrst 100-yard performance in his
second NFL season.
“We have talked openly about
the maturation process and things
you can expect from a second-year
player,” coach Mike Tomlin said,
“and he’s showed signs of that
from the very beginning of this
process. He is a quality player and
one that is maturing and emerging, and one who answered the
bell when called upon.”

The defense, while not quite on
the level of the famed Steel Curtain, was stingy and physical. It
held Saquon Barkley to 6 yards on
15 carries, swarming in the backﬁeld nearly all night.

Money raised for nurse honor guard
By Kayla (Hawthorne) Dunham

POINT PLEASANT — The
Moose Lodge #731 of Point
Pleasant held its monthly charity bingo on Monday night for
the Nurse Honor Guard of the
Ohio Valley.
According to Moose member
Dave Morgan, the total amount
raised for the nurses honor
guard was $1,900. Morgan
said an additional $400-500
is expected to be raised next
month at the charity bingo
because the organization will
be selling concessions.
“In addition to our normal

Postage
Division for the postage. He appeared personally at their virtual hearing to make his case,
arguing strongly that it was within the law.
“A no vote today is a no vote that is over
the objection of our bipartisan election officials and over my objection as the state’s chief
elections officer,” LaRose said.
The request represented a last-ditch effort
by LaRose after a package of election changes
he proposed in May stalled in the GOP-led
Legislature. He pitched it as an “innovative
solution” for paying postage that would make
“every mail box a drop box for millions of
Ohioans” and not require spending of state
and federal budget dollars.
To board members’ pushback, LaRose
argued that the same fund has been used in
the past to pay for voting machines, poll worker training and election-related legal fees.
LaRose’s effort failed despite support from
two former Ohio governors — Democrat Richard Celeste and Republican Bob Taft. The pair
wrote a joint letter to committee members
last week expressing strong support for ballot
postage.
“Voting is not a Democrat or Republican
issue — it’s an American issue,” they wrote.
“That is why, when the world is facing a
pandemic, we must show the courage to take
additional steps to empower voters seeking to
exercise their sacred right.”
Peterson, the No. 2 leader in the Senate,
attended the hearing while recovering from
COVID-19, said Senate spokesman John Fortney. His illness has required Senate President
Larry Obhof to quarantine. Another Ohio
state senator, Republican, Frank Hoagland,
has had and recovered from the virus, Fortney
said.
Democrats have contended that LaRose
already has both the power and the authorization he needs to add drop boxes and to
pay ballot postage. LaRose has said that his
lawyers tell him he still needed either legislative authorization or the Controlling Board’s
clearance.
