Tell the DOJ: Investigate the Ohio GOP's Voter Purge Scheme

Ohio Republicans are purging thousands of voters from the rolls in a blatant attempt to suppress votes ahead of the upcoming election. 

Now, a new watchdog report reveals that Ohio’s voter purge disproportionately targets voters of color, with over half of the potentially purged voters registered in counties where the majority of the population is people of color. This is not just an administrative move—it’s a direct attack on democracy.

Experts are pushing back, calling these purges unnecessary and harmful. Pierrette Talley, Executive Director of the Ohio Unity Coalition, points out that this is "disproportionately impacting voters of color," many of whom have long been disenfranchised by discriminatory barriers. 

Sign the petition urging the Department of Justice to launch an immediate investigation into Ohio Republicans' last-minute voter purge.

This voter suppression attempt is particularly alarming given the close race between Democrat Sherrod Brown and Republican Bernie Moreno for Ohio’s Senate seat. 

The outcome of this race could determine which party controls the U.S. Senate. By purging thousands of voters, Ohio Republicans could be tipping the scales in their favor.

Sign this petition to demand that the DOJ investigate Ohio's voter purge scheme and ensure that every eligible voter can exercise their right to vote.
