Ohio SOS has CAVED!!!

[mtnester]

26. But not before he mailed every registered voter a list of times that did NOT include the weekend

hours, all wrapped up in an "absentee ballot" request and informational packet, which included a cut off time of the Friday before at 6PM. I have mine and my spouses sitting on the kitchen counter, which arrived Wednesday.

He ought to be arrested for contempt for that mailing as it is a very public written confirmation of his contempt, and his caving is moot now that he passed out the voting hours. Those who do not follow politics to a huge degree have this packet, and will assume these are the correct times for early voting.

At the very LEAST I would make them resend the information...crafted by a marketing agency that puts the changes in simple language instead of letting their office write it, hiding it in political jargon the average person either does not read or does not understand. Or taking out constant TV ads announcing early voting times. That said, I think he ought to go to jail for a few days for contempt.

The Obama campaign better start getting folks organized to assist election protection in Ohio. There won't be ENOUGH lawyers on the ground to deal with it all. It will be worse than 2004. So far, I have not gotten any notice of any voting day organization like in the past for this specific issue.
