The plaintiffs seem to be correct. They are not objecting on Federal/constitutional grounds, but under Ohio law. The article quotes an Ohio statute that says its presidential electors may not "hold any public office under the United States, or this state, or a political subdivision thereof."

That seems pretty clear to me, but I'd be curious to see what Ohio Freepers and lawyers might say.

Not from Ohio but, "If the law supposes that,” … “the law is a ass" ~ Charles Dickens

Okay, thank you for the clarification. It appears it has validity. :)
