Gee I hope Jennifer “GOBAMA” Brunner won’t be too devastated.
Yeah, but,,,,,
‘On Monday, the day before early voting opened in Ohio, Brunner’s office won several court cases in which Republican voters and the state GOP had asked state and federal courts to stop the process because it permitted voters to register and cast absentee ballots at the same time.
The one-stop voting stemmed from a directive Brunner issued based on a unique overlap between when absentee ballots became available in the state and the close of voter registration a week later.
Ohio this year allows voters to cast absentee ballots without providing an excuse as to why they will not be present on Election Day — and that change has led to a steady get-out-the-vote effort during the one-stop overlap period, which ends Oct. 6.
