Okay, so I edited the title of the blog somewhat from the real event, but seriously, how can a judge determine that someone who is homeless in fact is a registered voter? The definition of homeless is someone who has no home, right? Or maybe I'm missing something- the definition of homelss may mean a Democrat who has no current address in that location, but should be given a ballot anyways. Here is the actual ruling, from this source:
A federal judge in Ohio has ruled that counties must allow homeless voters to list park benches and other locations that aren't buildings as their addresses.
The judge's name is U.S. District Judge Edmund Sargus. A quick search of him revealed that he was a judge that allowed recounts to be conducted in the 2004 Presidential election in Ohio (even though recounts were not called for by law), made a ruling that forced NCAA basketball teams to let anyone play in their tournaments, required a Columbus-based company to reduce chemical emissions that he said caused acid rain, he also ruled against a utility company in a federal Clean Air Act case, and in the late 90's made a ruling that cities could prevent religious people from going door-to-door.
