Every four years, we are given the opportunity to cast our votes to elect the President of the United States. In Ohio, we vote for Governor (and other statewide offices), during the midterm elections (the next one occurring in 2022). Certainly, the obvious impact of your vote is to help elect the candidate you support. In a swing state like Ohio, that can make the difference.
However, there is an extremely important, if less obvious, outcome of your vote as well. Politicians running for office, whether they are running for president of the United States, city council, or dog catcher, ask for your vote so they can win. However, our community needs you to vote for another reason, that politicians don’t tell you about.
Communities and families throughout Ohio and the United States are impacted directly by decisions that are made at the local, state, and federal levels. Whether the issue is property taxes, funding for day schools, investments in public spaces, and countless other government functions, these decisions are all made at some level by elected officials.
Every responsible and competent elected official knows exactly which cities vote, which communities, which streets, and often even if YOU yourself have voted. They do not know who you voted for and may not know what issues are important to you, but they know WHO votes. The time, effort, and political courage of elected officials is directly tied to being responsive to communities that vote. Even if they disagree with you, they will work to win over those that consistently participate in the voting process.
That is why it is crucial for you to vote, even if you do not have strong feelings about a particular candidate or issue. Your very act of voting helps our community accomplish things that matter to us and YOU! Your community needs you!
Return your absentee ballots today or make sure you show up at the polls on November 3!
Polls are open from 6:30AM-7:30PM. Make sure to bring a valid ID.

This weekend clocks are moved back one hour. While the official time to do this is 2am Sunday morning, you can just do it before you go to sleep; definitely before Sunday morning carpool.
Practically speaking, the change means that Sunday morning you gain one (measly) hour of sleep which you already used Motzei Shabbos staying up later. It also means that for the next four months you’ll practice subtracting an hour from the time on your car’s clock, and that darkness will fall an hour sooner but hey, we’re Cleveland, we’re used to not seeing the sun.
Joking aside, this change affects halachic zmanim. Please remember to pay attention to the new zmanim going forward.
We regret to inform you of the passing of Marcia Keller’s mother.
Due to COVID-19, Nichum Aveilim will be by phone only. Mrs. Keller can be reached at 216-464-5388.

When it’s the weekend of the time change, University Heights collects household hazardous waste and shred paper. The collection will take place Friday, October 30th, from 8am to 3pm. The announcement is unclear exactly where to drop it off but presumably you should be able to ask someone at the Service Department at University Heights City Hall.
We are up and running during the coronavirus (COVID-19), we take all the precautions necessary so you can trust us and feel comfortable with our services (sanitize our equipment, use shoe covers and gloves, use a mask, wash our hands and more). We are considered as an essential service.
