Cuyahoga County executive Ed FitzGerald (D-Ohio), who is running for governor, announced Thursday at a press conference that he will challenge new voting laws enacted this week that will eliminate early voting on Sundays and weekday evenings, according to the Columbus Dispatch.
FitzGerald is Gov. John Kasich’s (R-Ohio) likely challenger in the November general election. He leads the state’s largest county and has argued that the new laws disproportionately restrict access to voting for minority groups and residents of urban areas.

Conservatives continue to have no imagination. So it’s an ugly return to restricting people’s freedoms.
