HOW TO BE NOMINATED FOR THE SUPREME COURT

This article was just published in the Newark Advocate, how embarrassing for our country.

I would think Judge Sargus may feel a little sick to his stomach when he really thinks about it. Maye the counties should consider making park benches into condominiums, they would be able to sell three seats to voters per bench.


COLUMBUS (AP) — A federal judge in Ohio has ruled that counties must allow homeless voters to list park benches and other locations that aren’t buildings as their addresses.

U.S. District Judge Edmund Sargus also ruled that provisional ballots can’t be invalidated because of poll worker errors.

Monday’s ruling resolved the final two pieces of a settlement between the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless and Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner.

The coalition agreed to drop a constitutional challenge to Ohio’s voter identification law until after the Nov. 4 election. In return, Brunner and the coalition agreed on procedures to verify provisional ballots across all Ohio counties.

The coalition was concerned that unequal treatment of provisional ballots would disenfranchise some voters.
