Senator Turner Reacts to Supreme Court Ruling


Denial of stay is a victory for Ohios voters CLEVELAND Today, State Senator Nina Turner (D-Cleveland) issued the following statement in response to the United States Supreme Courts decision to deny Secretary of State Jon Husteds bid for a stay of a lower courts ruling that allows early voting on the three days prior to Election Day on November 6. Today we saw the Supreme Court do the right thing and side with Ohios voters. While I am pleased with the outcome, it should not have taken Secretary Husted two appeals to learn what Ohio voters have known since 2006. There is no place for gamesmanship when it comes to the ballot box. Its time to let the people vote. Now that all voters have these opportunities, it is imperative that we use them. All the early voting hours in the world are meaningless if no one casts their ballot.
