Ohio Faces Legal Challenges Over Mass Voter Registration Removals

Advocacy groups claim Ohio's voter roll purges violate federal law, prompting potential legal action.

Voter advocacy groups have notified Ohio's Secretary of State Frank LaRose about illegal voter roll purges in several counties.
The National Voter Registration Act prohibits systematic voter removals 90 days before a federal election without proper notification and waiting periods.
Ohio's actions are part of a broader trend, with similar voter registration challenges occurring in other states like Michigan and Alabama.
Butler County has received 1,900 voter registration challenges, highlighting the widespread nature of the issue across Ohio.
Voting rights organizations argue that challenges based on third-party data without direct knowledge violate federal provisions.
