U.S. Supreme Court allows Ohio to purge voting rolls.

The League of Women Voters of Ohio today announced participation in a lawsuit challenging the state's U.S. congressional districts as unconstitutional.

Today, the Supreme Court heard arguments in Husted v. A. Philip Randolph Institute. I joined other advocates calling for an end to voter purges.

In a spirited argument on Wednesday, the Supreme Court appeared deeply divided over whether Ohio may kick people off the voting rolls if they skip a few elections and fail to respond to a notice from state officials.
