What must an applicant provide to be appointed as a notary by the Secretary of State?

A certificate of completion from a notary training course
A certificate from a judge regarding the applicant's moral character and qualifications
Proof of Ohio residency for at least 10 years
A bond of $10,000

The correct answer is: A certificate from a judge regarding the applicant's moral character and qualifications

In order to be appointed as a notary by the Secretary of State, an applicant must provide a certificate from a judge regarding their moral character and qualifications. This certificate serves as proof that the applicant is a responsible and trustworthy individual who is capable of fulfilling the duties of a notary public. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not meet the specific requirement set by the Secretary of State. Option A only shows completion of a training course, which may not necessarily guarantee that the applicant is qualified to be a notary. Option C only proves residency in Ohio, but does not address the specific requirement for a notary appointment. Option D only provides a general bond amount, but does not meet the specific bond requirement set by the Secretary of State. Therefore, option B is the correct and most relevant answer to the question.
