Larry's Fight Against Ohio Voter Purges Goes to the Supreme Court

Larry Harmon shares his experience of finding out he was purged from Ohio's polls.

In 2016, after having notified Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted that Ohio’s Supplemental Process violates the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA), Demos and the ACLU of Ohio brought a lawsuit on behalf of the Ohio A. Philip Randolph Institute (APRI), the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless (NEOCH), and Ohio resident Larry Harmon, a Navy veteran who voted in 2008 but was purged under the Supplemental Process despite having remained at the same address and being fully eligible to vote.
