ABC News ^ | September 25, 2016 | Jennifer Hansler

Just weeks before the Nov. 8 election, a federal appeals court has ruled that Ohio’s method of purging names of inactive voters from voter rolls is unconstitutional. Ohio, a battleground state in the presidential race, removed the names of tens of thousands of registered voters under what it calls its “supplemental process."

Think they would be allowed to stonewall like Hillary?

Not a prayer of a chance.

Nobody can get away with the things she does.

Purging the voter rolls discriminates against dead voters.

I wish they would have had the foresight to do it immediately BEFORE the “purge”.

Since the Feds placed Clinton ABOVE the law, then effectively, there is no law for this country. We are now a lawless banana republic.

Therefore, Ohio needs to IGNORE the Fed ruling and PROCEED accordingly. NULLIFY the Feds. STATES rights. Here’s hoping they do just that!

So this puts Ohio back In play for Hillary


Not exactly. According to the articles on the thread below, it is unclear if they can get the names on the rolls before the election.

Absentee requests have already been sent and Husted said he wasn’t sure if it would include the inactive voters and dead voters or just inactive one.

Post #7 has a couple more links, one of which said that the DOJ. Got involved in July.

When the DOJ gets involved it could be assumed there was pressure applied.

Many courts are committed to supporting voter fraud. That’s why voter ID laws are always struck down.

Let’s see Obama and the federal courts attempt to enforce the ruling.

Hadn’t thought of that, actually. Nevertheless, I believe in the principle of states rights, either way it cuts. We’ll have to pray extra hard!

“They should delete the records so they can’t restore the names.”

They should. There was no intent.

I’m not quite getting your emphasis here.

Sorry.

I’m not quite understanding your point.
