The court case Obama for America v. Husted focused on restoring early voting rights for all Ohio voters before Election Day. New state laws limited early voting for non-military voters, leading to a lawsuit. The court ruled in favor of allowing all voters the same early voting opportunities as military voters. Despite concerns from military organizations, this ruling is unlikely to affect military voting accommodations in other states.
