Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose traveled to Allen County on Friday to speak with students at Spencerville High School before Election Day. The visit is part of Secretary LaRose's "Youth at the Booth" initiative for high school students ages 17 and up. On Friday afternoon, Spencerville juniors and seniors listened to Secretary LaRose talk about how they can participate in the November election as poll workers experiencing American democracy in-person while being paid and completing any volunteer hours. Additionally, Secretary LaRose reminded those Spencerville students who will be 18 by Election Day to vote and defy any voter stereotypes against the younger population.
