    What kinda bullshit is this. One guy tries to overthrow the government and somehow it’s necessary for the good of the republic to force him onto the ballot, yet these jokers just decide they don’t wanna play ball and put the current president on their ballot.

      Republican bullshit. It’s smellier than normal bullshit, and only fertilizes weeds.

      Trump was kept on the ballot by SCOTUS, not because Democrats decided it’s a bad idea to challenge.

    At the heart of the issue is a partisan fight over donations by foreign nationals in support of ballot initiatives in Ohio, which Republicans in the state blamed for the passage last year of a constitutional amendment enshrining access to abortion in the stateHansjörg Wyss, a Swiss billionaire, is a major donor to one of the progressive groups that campaigned in Ohio in support of the measure, and Republicans supporting the measure have repeatedly singled out Mr. Wyss as a target of the ban.

    Republicans in Ohio have said that passing the ban on foreign donations is the price that Democrats will have to pay to ensure that Mr. Biden is on the ballot in the state.

    I wondered what the catch on “banning foreign money for ballot initiatives” was. Turns out they’re mad about having to allow women’s health on the ballot. All because of some lousy shifty Swiss person! Ooooooo! shakes fist

    Srs tho its just standard state politics stupid stuff. Its not like republiQans haven’t ever skirted election finance laws before. They know it’s just a show.
