[AnIndependentTexan]

CNN just reported that an Ohio Supreme Court judge has overturned the lower courts rulings on the challenges to voters.

1. has this ever happened before?.... my guess: not likely. n/t

[Christiandem]

2. has to be different issue

The Ohio SC has no authority whatsoever on the Federal Courts. Please, more information!!!!

3. Can't be right - OH Supremes have no power over Federal decisions

4. The fact that people want to depress the vote ought to motivate others

to get out there and vote!!! I can't believe that we are back to the days of Jim Crowe some are working hard to keep minorities from voting.

5. are you sure?? who reported it?

6. Did they take it to the Supreme Court?

I thought they were appealing it to the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. I would think that would make more sense than the OSC but what do I know I'm all the way in Connecticut.

7. I don't know

if it's true or not but I heard it too. I can't find a source on the internet.

8. Is this really a relevant issue?

If it were, I would expect this to show up on the internet(s) immediately. Nothing so far

[Christiandem]

9. Plus, I haven't even heard of any state court cases yet

10. Supreme court ruling

The ruling only applys if the 6th circuit overturns the federal ruling by tommorow.

[Bleacher Creature]

11. Exactly.

Only the full 6th Circuit or the Supreme Court can reverse this ruling. A state court decision is meaningless -- which means it didn't happen.

12. I've been watching CNN...didn't hear this

Sure it was CNN?

13. Supreme Court ruling

I read it in a online paper that the supreme court in Ohio ruled today that IF the 6th circuit overturns the fed ruling then they can put ONLY one poll watcher per precinct.
