The Supreme Court handed down their decision today ruling against Ohio voters in the case Husted v A. Philips Randolph Institute — upholding the state’s practice of purging voters who missed voting in a single election, no matter the reason. This is unacceptable. We cannot look the other way while thousands of eligible voters are kept from participating in our democracy. The League of Women Voters efforts to fight for the rights of every voter is more important now than ever before.

The Supreme Court handed down their decision today ruling against Ohio voters in the case Husted v A. Philips Randolph Institute — upholding the state’s practice of purging voters who missed voting in a single election, no matter the reason.

This is unacceptable. We cannot look the other way while thousands of eligible voters are kept from participating in our democracy. The League of Women Voters efforts to fight for the rights of every voter is more important now than ever before.
