⚠ THREAD -
We need to make it as easy as possible for Ohioans to cast their ballot SAFELY this November.
But Republicans are only making it harder for you to vote.
My colleagues and I called on Ohio Secretary of State LaRose to support providing more than one secure ballot drop box in each county.
Instead, he tried to block them.

Today, a judge AGREED with us.
In his ruling, he said LaRose’s decision to limit drop boxes amid a pandemic and postal delays is “arbitrary and unreasonable.”

We also asked LaRose to use his authority to prepay return postage on ballots.
Instead, he REFUSED and passed the buck to the Ohio Controlling Board, who then rejected the proposal.

And all of this is happening while President Trump and Postmaster DeJoy are sabotaging our postal system and delaying mail delivery.
Don’t let ANYONE discourage you from voting.
Your vote counts, and I’ll keep fighting to ensure all Ohioans can cast their ballots safely.
