An Ohio voting 
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🧵" title="Thread" aria-label="Emoji: Thread"> for you. Yesterday I was offered a provisional ballot, first because of my driver’s license expiration date, and then because my former address is on my driver’s license. 1/
I declined (no reason to hassle volunteer poll workers about Ohio’s anti-voter laws and practices) and asked the presiding judge to call the board to check the rules. 2/
I knew that my license is still valid until July 1, 2021 because of a law passed in response to the pandemic. 3/
And I knew that since 2006 when Ohio began asking voters for physical IDs, you are able to show a valid driver’s license with a former address. When you purchase a license, it& #39;s valid for at least four years. 4/
After the phone call I was able to vote with a regular ballot, but how many people would have known to push back? I’m an attorney with in-depth knowledge of Ohio’s voting laws, including why voters should or shouldn& #39;t be asked to vote a provisional ballot. 5/
Unfortunately I& #39;m not surprised to see this report showing that Ohio pushes more people to provisional ballots than almost any other state, and in 2020 the rate of rejecting those Ohioans& #39; ballots increased. 6/ https://publicintegrity.org/inside-publici/newsletters/watchdog-newsletter/voting-ohio-provisional-ballots-problem-solutions/">https://publicintegrity.org/inside-pu...
Let& #39;s come together to create a process where every Ohioan and American can safely and freely cast their ballot. Let& #39;s support the #ForThePeople Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. 7/7
