This is a big blow to GOP voter suppression efforts in Ohio. Obviously it's great news for Democrats. We remember Ken Blackwell in 2004..could this be a little karma?

The justices on Friday overruled a federal appeals court that had ordered Ohio's top elections official to do more to help counties verify voter eligibility.
Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner, a Democrat, faced a deadline of Friday to set up a system to provide local officials with names of newly registered voters whose driver's license numbers or Social Security numbers on voter registration forms don't match records in other government databases.
