Ohio Right to Life wins court ruling allowing advocacy groups to use names of political candidates within 30 days of election

By David DeWitt, PolitickerOH.com Reporter

The Ohio Right to Life Society is praising the ruling made by Ohio Southern District Court Judge George C. Smith that prevents the Ohio Elections Commission and the Ohio Secretary of State from enforcing a state law that would have prohibited any advocacy group from airing advertisements mentioning the name of a political candidate within 30 days of an election.

Ohio Right to Life Society executive Dircetor Mike Gonidakis said that the ruling was not just about Ohio Right to Life.
