Among the chief perps of the shrunken voting hours, switched precincts and other ploys to selectively suppress the vote was Secretary of State Jon Husted, a Republican handiman who spent most of the campaign trying to defend his spurious pledge to defend the integrity of the ballot box. You could depend on more credibility from the cast of mythical characters of the ancient Greek tragedies who intervened in people's lives from on high.

"Immoral" - she said of the practice, as she condemned the other side in her more temperate description. She has also accused it of being "arrogant and inebriated with power".
Turner, an aggressive champion of women's rights, can turn a phrase, too, as she did on the abortion issue in the Ohio General Assembly , which grabbed the attention of national TV. At a Planned Parenthood press conference, the Cleveland senator wore a shirt that demanded , GOP Get Out of My Panties. (Check the acronym!)
It gets better. As a lawmaker, she thought it would be a good idea if her anti-abortion colleagues showed the same concern for their own health as they do about women's bodies in the abortion fight. Her solution: men ought to undergo psychological tests before they reach for "dangerous drugs to treat their erectile dysfunction."
None of this kind of in-your-face sass will play well with the clubby Republicans running the state today. Her critics who will say that anybody who, satirically or otherwise, talks like that doesn't' deserve to be taken seriously. Oh? Just wait.
Nina is smart, combative and has issues on her side. Doesn't look like Husted et al can have any hope of denying her of voting on election day.
