As usual, the press promotes an inaccurate headline. This article's headline reads:

New Registration Rules Stir Voter Debate in Ohio

Ohio Democrats Complain About Lack of Volunteers

A new law was passed in Ohio that requires that "paid voter registration workers must personally submit the voter registration cards to the state, rather than allow the organizations overseeing the drives to vet and submit them in bulk."

In other words, an organization cannot sit around in offices and make up names and addresses and send them off to the state to be registered voters. Instead, if you're PAID, you MUST sign the voter registration card, and if it's fraudulent, YOU are responsible (I think the "responsible" part is the part that most annoys the Democrats).

The main complaint now is that Democrats cannot find enough workers to volunteer in "low income" areas. No mention is made of how many fear becoming crime victims if they volunteer.

But Democrats, true to form, when faced with laws that attempt to expand freedom, are doing what they do most: filing a lawsuit and trying to overrule law by the people and instead find a friendly judge. Can I sue the Democrats in Ohio for wasting my tax money on courts?
