Ohio’s Sub. HB 3, which (among other things) would provide that voters may register into particular parties on their voter registration forms, is likely to be tabled for the remainder of the summer.

Sub. HB 3 is an election law omnibus bill, but currently it has no ballot access improvements in it, even though three of Ohio’s ballot access laws are currently being litigated in the U.S. Court of Appeals, 6th circuit. Perhaps when the bill is taken up again in September or October, some of the ballot access problems can be addressed in the bill.
