    You’re talking about the Federal level, which has nothing to do with the DNC’s current problem in Ohio. They’ve been running around all year trying to change the order in which the states vote. So far, most all of them have told the DNC to pound sand, including Ohio. This deadline did not spring up out of nowhere, and it’s only a problem because of the DNC’s poor planning.

    Seriously what was the plan? Ignore the deadlines and expect a last-minute exception to be made? I’m not singing the praises of the Ohio GOP, and I agree they’re being dicks about this, but who really caused this problem? Ohio didn’t set the DNCC date. States run their elections how they want. A federal officer coming in and saying “No, do it this way because we said so” isn’t how the this system was intended to function.
