I am amazed at how many experts on Ohio election law we have in this Chamber. I had no idea that so many Members from all over the country would have such a working knowledge of the Ohio electoral process. My friend from Ohio and others have explained it quite well how we work very well on a bipartisan basis. Indeed, our election laws in Ohio are quite adequate to the task despite the fact that we had a huge number of voters, an unprecedented number of registrants, and some adjustments to the new voting system; but I think we, by everybody's estimation, did quite well. This is a time, as my friend from Ohio said, for reflection, for healing, for getting on with the business of the Nation. This exercise, unfortunately, has distracted our country from that worthy goal. For that, I am truly sorry.
