The person is stepping aside to help Trump by removing any possibility of courtroom shenanigans. She should be praised, not insulted.

Did you bother to read even the abstract of the article? She is making sure that the lawsuit cannot delay the vote.

For God’s sake——read before you post.

She did the right thing.

That is not the issue. She's resigning because two people filed a lawsuit due to the fact that state legislators apparently cannot be EC voters. I'm guessing it's an obscure statute that no one was aware of. Leave it to DemocRATS to dig up this kind of stuff when it suits their needs.

She either stands aside and lets someone else vote for Trump or she stands her ground and embroils the elector slate from Ohio in a legal challenge. Sometimes, discretion is really the better part of valor.

If she took the role despite a valid state prohibition against it, she should be admonished by the party - alongside the party officials who allowed it.

The hillaristas are out of control. Best to have an elector whose vote could not be contested in court, regardless how far-fetched the lawsuit would be. Dragging it out could deprive Trump of that vote.

Sad, isn't it? Pray that under DJT the sedditionists are brought under control and we can be America again.

Sounds like she's defusing a lawsuit that would be used to "demonstrate illegal activities by Republican Electors"...

As she said, she's doing it so that there will be no delay in awarding the electoral votes to Trump. Hardly a wimp attribute.

Read the article. She was probably on shaky legal grounds under the Ohio constitution.

Read the article. She resigned because the lawsuit filed could have prevented Ohio electors from finishing today. Not a whimp.
