Ohio election official Bethe Goldenfield first learned of Senate Bill 293 in mid-October, when she was busy managing the fall local elections happening in her county Sponsored by Republicans, in a statehouse with GOP supermajorities in both chambers, the bill sought to repeal Ohio’s practice of counting mail ballots that are postmarked prior to Election Day but that arrive up to four days after polls close.
This is a priority for Donald Trump, who is hostile to all manners of mail voting and wants to ban so-called grace periods for mail ballots everywhere. Ohio’s bill followed his lead, threatening thousands of votes in the process.
It’s so weird how the cons love to make it very difficult to vote.
…and to speak freely. Bear arms, though…
For now.
Unless you’re not white CIS of course
Indeed. See how quickly the Blessed Saint Ronnie Raygun (PBUH) took action on guns when black people started toting them around in public.
Cool, now to continue to enshittify the Post Office, limit ballot drop-off locations, and post ICE next to the ballot boxes to “protect the election process”.
And ensure that ballots are only acceptable if they’re postmarked for the exact day of the election, not a single day before.
Man, fuck Ohio. Trying their very best to be lil Texas.
It’ll just fuck over their own base, especially the elderly. Is going to be glorious.
