"Mismatch” legal battle moves to Ohio Supreme Court

Just hours after the Ohio Republican Party lost in the U.S. Supreme Court, the battle over mismatched voter registrations has moved to the all-Republican Ohio Supreme Court in Columbus.

A lawsuit filed on Friday, Oct. 17, against Democratic Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner (pictured) asks the Ohio court to tell Brunner to tell county boards of elections not to process or count absentee ballots cast by voters registered after Jan. 1 before reviewing them for mismatches.

The lawsuit was filed by David Myhal of New Albany, a Columbus suburb. Myhal is a registered Republican in Franklin County and one of his attorneys is William Todd of Columbus who has close ties to the Republican party. The Ohio Republican Party is not an official party to the lawsuit, however.

The new lawsuit deals only with absentee ballots; the U.S. Supreme Court suit included an estimated 200,000 mismatches among nearly 666,000 voters registered since Jan. 1.
