So micro version of the save act. So how many women are in Ohio are going to be disenfranchised from voting because they took their husband's name and can't afford and or get a passport before the primaries?

They are already spreading propaganda that the ballot measure in November is to "codify" in the Ohio constitution that voter ID in Ohio is required. There is zero mention about requiring proof of citizenship but you can bet $ that the language for it will be in this ballot measure.
