The Ohio Supreme Court sided with the Stark County, Ohio board of elections Monday night, compelling the county commissioners to unlock funds for new voting machines — money they’d previously blocked after a wave of Trump supporters besieged them with conspiracy theories.
If this fiasco doesn’t serve standing on a silver platter to Dominion to file a defamation lawsuit against every last conspiracy monger in the country, then WTF does?
I don’t know how OH sets up their county boards of elections, but this has got to be frustrating for any Republican on the board.
Perhaps a case that says it’s okay for the mob to block a sale of Dominion equipment?
Be clear here, people. Despite the misleading headline, the story says the Ohio Supreme Court is fine with this county buying Dominion equipment. Probably because Epstein plied them with teenage girls, or pizza, or ping pong, or whatever. 
They’ve probably all been vaccinated, and the SOROS chip implants are coming online.
AND one more time it looks like the ONLY ones screwing around with the voting machines, the ballots and fraudulently voting are the REPUBLICAN ‘victims’.
But, but, but… JFK jr is alive! Can’t you see this? All the pieces come together once you do!
Oh, shit, THANK YOU. I just finished Paul Krugman’s latest. It will give on chills.
Anyone want to bet there’s an astroturf phone-bank in Florida that DeSantis and Scott both know all about?
Scott’s so full of the devil, he’s going to make Trump jealous.
Someone’s running a scam phone bank in Florida that targets the vote-count zealots in other states.
Someone should demand recounts of REPUBLICAN-won states?
Or were all those machines OK?
The hypocrisy just compounds with every whine.
$1.5 million for voting machines, which they were going to spend anyway. But how much did fighting this all the way up cost in legal fees? And since the Board of Commissioners is the funding agency for the Board of Elections, don’t they get to pay the cost of litigation for both sides? Oh, wait. That would be the taxpayers. Deplorable.
That was precisely my point.
Any decent Republican will refuse to vote on a Dominion machine.

Ohio BOEs have 4 members, 2 Republicans and 2 Democrats. The tie breaking vote belongs to the SOS, who is current a Republican. As in most states, the people responsible for running the elections at least appear to know what they are doing.
Then your point is bad, because this case does not make that point. Dominion is not being harmed here. To the contrary, SCOOH (an acronym I just made up but intend to use as often as I can) is ruling that the county can buy $1.5 million of Dominion goods, despite the mob’s insistence that Dominion is bad.
I must say until 2 years ago I wouldn’t know how my BOE worked until I went to a meeting. At that meeting which covered various things the Democratic commissioner of my county’s BOE spoke. It was general speech about voting, and more specific on the new machines that were rolling out that year.
But now even though I’ve never been a poll worker, vote counter, I got the outline of the outline of how the election process works in my county. So let’s just say I know more than the average Trumper.
It’s very important to call these machines what they are: Vote Counting Machines.*
They work from paper ballots, and so recounts can be easily done. And they are much more secure than machines which do not use paper ballots.
Dominion has already been harmed. They could have booked this income two quarters ago. The court decision just means the harm won’t (well, maybe) continue indefinitely.
Not here. Getting tied up in litigation is not a compensable injury.
Whatever…
