A transgender woman running for an Ohio House seat has been disqualified for failing to disclose her former name on petitions circulated to voters, in violation of a seldom-enforced state law.
Local election officials informed Vanessa Joy, who hoped to run as a Democrat for Ohio House District 50, that she was not eligible to do so, despite having collected the signatures necessary to run.
Joy sought to run in a firmly Republican district covering Stark County, just south of Akron.
I don’t think Ohio is in Texas.
It’s all Ohio. Always has been.
BIG if true!!
Not as big as if Ohio was in Texas. It’s the rule.
America has only three cities: New York, San Francisco, and New Orleans. Everywhere else is Cleveland.
Would have picked Los Angeles over New Orleans
Take it up with Tennessee Williams.
