To: 17th Miss Regt

The plaintiff is not right. She is not a member of Congress. If she were, she could not be an elector.

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.
