But it is important for Ohio to keep voting as accessible as possible to all of its citizens. So many in my county (Summit) voted early and in person. In 2008, we were allowed to have a separate site for early voting with a large amount of parking. This time Alex Arshnikoff and Husted have blocked THAT.

It is hateful what is happening in Ohio.
