Appeals Ct overturns decision on jailed voters

A federal appeals court has ruled that organizations conducting voter outreach did not have the right to sue the state of Ohio on behalf of voters who are arrested and jailed the weekend before Election Day. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati on Friday overturned the decision of a federal judge who earlier had ruled that voters jailed the weekend before the election must be given a chance to cast an absentee ballot.
