Ohio Asks for 2nd Time Extension

The Ohio petition deadline (for independent candidates other than presidential candidates) has been attacked in a cert petition filed in the US Supreme Court several months ago (Lawrence v Blackwell). Attorneys for the state have now asked for a 2nd extension of time in which to file a response. The Court already granted them 30 days extension. It is somewhat unusual for a state to ask for multiple extensions, and the Court may or may not grant still more time.
