I firmly believe Canal Winchester is a great
place to call home.
Quality people create a quality community,
and a quality community is a place people want to
call home. Canal Winchester’s success has
brought many benefits, but the city also faces significant
challenges. Because so many people
want to live here, a well-planned infrastructure is
critical.
When I was elected as your Mayor, economic
times where bleak and the majority of our days
were spent balancing finances while providing a
high level of service. From the dirt floors of our
Street Department garage to the moldy offices of

Re-elect Mayor Mike Ebert
our safety services, we worked as a team to make
things better.
Through the years as your Mayor, I have
emphasized the importance using tax dollars
wisely and being fiscally responsible when planning
new infrastructure. This is one of my guiding
principles.
The city has never been better off financially
than it is now.
With the positive state of our city, it is time to
build on our strengths and address challenges and
opportunities. That is why I feel now is the time
to propose several quality of life enhancements
that will benefit everyone.

Make Election Day go smoothly
These tips can help voters prepare for
Election Day.
•Confirm your polling location. Voters
can contact their local board of elections or
visit www.Vote411.org to confirm the correct
polling locations.
•Bring photo identification. Voters who
bring along a driver’s license or state identification
card may get in and out of the
polling place more quickly than those who
do not.
•Confirm registration. Voters can confirm
that they have registered to vote by
contacting their local board of elections in
advance of Election Day. Sometimes voters’
names may not appear on the registration
list when they arrive to vote, even if
they previously registered. Poll workers
can help voters who find themselves in
such situations. But voters who want to
avoid such hassles on Election Day can
confirm their registration beforehand.
•Be familiar with the candidates and
issues on the ballot. Voting is a privilege
and a responsibility, so voters should
familiarize themselves with the candidates
and issues on the ballot in the weeks leading
up to Election Day. In addition to
national or statewide candidates and
issues, voters should learn about local
issues that may have a more direct impact
on their daily lives. The more voters learn
about the candidates and issues in
advance, the more quickly they can cast
their votes and get to work or return home.
Voting on Election Day is a privilege
that voters should not take lightly. Taking
certain steps in the weeks ahead of
Election Day can make it easier for voters
to cast their ballots.
