..... Ohio is in her area of over view and she might have said the court was not going
to hear the case. although Sec. of State Jon "the douche bag" Husted still limited the hours for early voting on the last 3 days ... Sat. 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM Sunday 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM Mondays 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM But still this is great news ..... Ohio might very well be out of reach for Romney by election day.
