Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine has signed a measure to ensure President Joe Biden will appear on the state ballot in November.
DeWine, a Republican, signed the measure — which relaxes a state candidate filing deadline — Sunday along with a related bill that imposes a ban on foreign nationals contributing to state ballot campaigns. Both will take effect Aug. 31.
The Republican-dominated Legislature had approved the two measures last week during a rare special session. The contribution ban had been demanded by the Senate, which approved the measures Friday, a day after the House passed them.
That’s just an example of how far right the republican party has gone. Dewine used to be considered more right than the rest of his party. He had pushed for a heartbeat bill forever and was never considered a moderate. But because of how bat shit insane the Republican party in Ohio has gotten he seems moderate compared to the rest.
In reality though, it’s just that he’s one of the last Adults left in the room. So even small things like this, which have been done for democrats and republicans in past years, makes him seem moderate. trust me though, while he might respect the rule of law and believe in democracy a moderate it doesn’t make him.
