The U.S. Supreme Court rules with Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner, granting her a stay to a temporary restraining order from a federal appeals court that ordered her to provide a system for implementing voter fraud prevention methods.
The U.S. Supreme Court agreed with Democratic Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner, granting her a stay on Friday to a decision from a lower court that ordered her to provide a system for implementing voter fraud prevention methods.
The decision by the full court repudiates the lower court's ruling siding with the Ohio Republican Party and ordering Brunner to verify records of about 200,000 of 666,000 new voters this year whose driver's license and Social Security records don't match information in other government databases.
In an unsigned order, the high court ruled that it could not say whether Ohio was properly enforcing the Help America Vote Act. However, it said the Ohio GOP doesn't have the standing to file the suit.
"They didn't deal with the merits of the case," said Ohio GOP Chairman Bob Bennett. "What they dealt with was a technicality on whether we had standing or not to bring the action."

All the Supremes, or just Stevens, I wonder?

That’s OK. What’s another 200,000 fraudulent votes?

Stevens was the Supreme Court justice who would be handling the appeal. Still to be seen is whether the full court will look at it.

No idea I am trying to get the skinny, might mean simply that the SCOTUS refused to hear it I don’t know yet.

No surprise. I’d like to hear their reasoning, though.

It’s a Drudge headline too.

The lock-step march of political bias continues. Imagine our country if Obama wins and gets total control of our House and Senate. God help us.

My apologies. It seems to have been a full court decision, not just Stevens.
