Ohio Legislative Black Caucus, clergy speak out against Senate Bill 5
www.cleveland.com
One of the most poignant moments belonged to the Rev. Marvin McMickle of Antioch Baptist Church, who told how a great-uncle was shot dead in Kentucky in 1930 for demanding to register to vote.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- "More than 150 people filled the basement of Olivet Institutional Baptist Church on Saturday to hear legislators denounce what has come to be known as Ohio Senate Bill 5, saying it strips away collective-bargaining rights of public employees and will disproportionately affect the black community.

It was a town-hall meeting setting, and many of the comments drew standing ovations from audience members at the East Side Cleveland church. Local speakers were joined by a Wisconsin legislator who is embroiled in a similar fight in her state. She said the issues cross state lines." Full Article | cleveland.com

Since 2008, an Ohio-based company, White Hat Management, has collected around $230 million to run charter schools in that state. The company has grown into a national chain and reports that it has about 20,000 students across the country. But now 10 of its own schools and the state of Ohio are suing, complaining that many White Hat students are failing, and that the company has refused to account for how it has spent the money.

I have never seen so many people up in arms, or as knee-jerkingly rigid as in the great debate around the so-called Liberal blogosphere than the discussion of third party politics and the potential fall out of the coming elections.

David Callahan: Ohio's Voter ID Law and the 2012 Election

David Callahan: Ohio's Voter ID Law and the 2012 Election

"Last year, Demos Senior Fellow Lori Minnite published a groundbreaking book with the blunt title The Myth of Voter Fraud. Minnite's research in multiple states confirmed the observations of veteran election officials in Ohio: voter fraud is not a significant problem in U.S. elections.

What is a threat to our electoral system are deliberate efforts to disenfranchise voters for partisan gain. And make no mistake: That is what is happening in Ohio."
