Law’s Jonathan Entin weighs in on ballot harvesting in Ohio

Federal court sides with Ohio voters with disabilities, strikes down state law

WEWSJonathan Entin, the David L. Brennan Professor Emeritus of Law, explained that lawmakers probably didn’t intend to disenfranchise voters with disabilities. “Legislators were concerned about the possibility of a practice called ballot harvesting — that some slimy, unethical or corrupt people will go and corral a whole bunch of votes, absentee ballots and turn them in in a way that undermines the integrity of the election,” Entin said.
