EXCLUSIVE: More Perfect Union has obtained a sweeping 150-page draft GOP voter suppression bill that would severely restrict voting in Ohio.
The legislation includes provisions that are even more radical than Georgia's new voting laws, which have spurred a national backlash.

The new Ohio voter suppression bill would:
- Require voters to provide *two* forms of ID to vote absentee or early
- Create different ID rules for mail and early in-person voting
- Eliminate ALL ballot drop boxes
- Cut the most popular day of early voting
- Ban pre-paid postage

Ohio already has some of the most restrictive voting laws and is one of the most gerrymandered states.
It has purged 2 million voters since 2012 and significantly depressed minority turnout.
These measures will further target low-income voters, young people & people of color.
