Ohio Signs Consent Decree, Agreeing that Ban on Out-of-State Circulators for Initiatives is Unconstitutional

On May 13, the lawsuit Friedlander v Brunner, 2:10cv-378, was settled out of court. The lawsuit had been filed April 27, 2010, to challenge an Ohio ban on out-of-state circulators for initiative and referendum petitions, and also to challenge a requirement that the circulator’s permanent address be entered on each petition sheet. The case had been filed in U.S. District Court in Cincinnati.

The state agreed that the two laws are unconstitutional, and promised not to enforce them. The case had been filed by an official of the Humane Society, and also by Citizens in Charge.

  1. Each State happens to be a *nation-State* with its own *internal* politics — regardless of the MORON party hack Supremes — i.e. citizen-Electors of the State — everybody else = NOT citizen-Electors.

    1776 DOI
    1777 Art. Confed.
    1783 U.S.A.-Brit Peace Treaty
    1787 Const – See Art. I, Sec. 10 and Art. VII

    Initiative and referendum petitions AIN’T the same as 1st Amdt petitions for redress of grievances — regardless of the nonstop ability of the party hack Supremes to mystify the English language and political – legal history.

  2. I would like Demo Rep to produce a long for certificate of birth from whatever planet he calls home.

  3. #2 How about intelligence tests for ALL of the pre-school juveniles posting their MORON comments on this list — as well as for the party hack robotic Supremes ???

  4. #3 –

    I wasn’t questioning your intelligence, just your planet of birth.

    I’m guessing it’s a world called “AUTOCAPS.”
