Scum-sucking Democrats sue to restrict military early voting in Ohio

Obama campaign sues Ohio over military voting

“Fifteen military groups are opposing a federal lawsuit in Ohio brought by President Barack Obama's campaign because they say it could threaten voter protections afforded to service members. Obama's campaign and Democrats argue the law unfairly ends in-person voting for most Ohioans three days earlier than it does for military and overseas voters. They say such disparate treatment is unconstitutional, and all voters should be able to vote on those days. Organizations including AMVETS asked a judge late Wednesday to dismiss the lawsuit. They say federal and state law recognizes military voters need extra time. They fear a court could find that service members shouldn't be treated differently. Most Ohioans have until Friday evening before Election Day to cast a ballot in person. Military voters have until Monday.”

(Military not mentioned until third paragraph; top of story about Republican-controlled legislature and Republican governor. That makes it sound like another “Republicans intend to disenfranchise American voters,” when truth is “Democrats launch another attack against military voters because people in uniform have more sense than to vote for bottom-feeding, algae-sucking Barbara Streisand/Jane Fonda types.”)
