U.S. District Judge Peter C. Economus granted a motion on Monday which allows 15 military groups to intervene in a lawsuit from the Obama campaign which would allow Ohio voters to vote in-person during the three day period leading up to election day.
The National Guard Association of the United States; Association of the U.S. Army; Association of the U.S. Navy; Marine Corps League; Military Officers Association of America; Reserve Officers Association; National Association for Uniformed Services; Non Commissioned Officers Association of the USA; Army Reserve Association; Fleet Reserve Association; Special Forces Association; U.S. Army Rangers Association, Inc.; Military Order of the Wars; AMVETS; and National Defense Committee all sought to intervene in the lawsuit.
The Obama campaign and Ohio both supported the motion to intervene.
