On September 24, the Sixth Circuit issued a 46-page opinion in Ohio State Conference of the NAACP v Husted, 14-3877. The opinion says that a U.S. District Court was correct when it enjoined Ohio election officials from cutting back the number of days on which voters may cast early votes.
In 2014, the Ohio legislature passed a bill that eliminated early voting during the first week in October, and also eliminated early voting on the Sunday and Monday before general election day. That law is now enjoined. Both the U.S. District Court and the Sixth Circuit rely partly on section 2 of the federal voting rights act. Section 2, which was not used very much until recently, prevents any state or other jurisdiction from discriminating against racial or ethnic minorities in voting. The court decisions cite evidence that African-American voters disproportionately use early voting.
The Sixth Circuit opinion is by Judge Karen Moore, a Clinton appointee. It is co-signed by Judge Eric Clay, another Clinton appointee, and Damon Keith, a Carter appointee.
The first week in October is important, because during that period, voters who are not registered may register.
The judge hacks have been perverting the 15th Amdt since the 1965 VRA.
ANY body with brains can detect that the 15th Amdt was derived from 14th Amdt, Sec. 2 —
and is ONLY about NEGATIVE stuff about who can be an Elector — has ZERO to do with other election stuff.
Deadline dates, how to vote, etc.
Prez Grant BARELY won in Nov 1868 via votes in NORTHERN States from BLACK ex-Union Army and Navy vets in the horrific Civil War.
TOTAL panic among the Elephants in Jan-Feb 1869 (old lame duck session).
Result – 15th Amdt proposed in Feb. 1869 and ratified in 1870.
