Ohio Primary Will Go Forward

A judge denied an attempt to delay Ohio’s primary election due to coronavirus, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

“He said it was too late — 12 hours out from polls opening — to make such a momentous decision, especially since the state couldn’t guarantee that June would be any safer.”

“The ruling — and DeWine’s and LaRose’s earlier statements — threatens to plunge the primary into chaos. Not only are people confused whether the election is tomorrow, state officials were adamant the election could put poll workers’ and voters’ health at risk.”
