Of course, they actually have until 7 p.m. this evening."

    "True the Vote observers barred from Franklin County polling places"

/Columbus Dispatch 
<http://dispatchpolitics.dispatch.com/content/blogs/the-daily-briefing/2012/11/6-november-2012---ttv-denied.html>: 
/"True the Vote -- whose Ohio branch is called the Voter Integrity 
Project -- was denied status as official observers because at least most 
of the candidates who supported the organization's effort withdrew their 
backing. State law allows groups of at least five candidates to assign 
poll observers, and the group originally had obtained signatures from a 
bipartisan group of six candidates for county office."
