1. What would you do to enforce Ohio's sunshine laws and open-records policy, given increased difficulty in accessing public records? (150 word limit)

Answer from Mary Taylor:

As the next Auditor of State, I will make sure that I and the team around me are committed to enforcing Ohio's sunshine laws and open-records policy in a friendly and enthusiastic manner. I am committed to training the professionals in the office to fully understand Ohio's open-records laws so that we can serve as a resource to state and local governments and agencies in complying with the laws as well. I will have zero tolerance for anything but mandatory compliance of the law.
