"I guess I really actually feel we shouldn’t contort the voting process to accommodate the urban—read African-American—voter-turnout machine."
Doug Preisse is a Ohio Republican Party Chair and a member of the state's election commission. He gave this quote in an email to the Columbus Dispatch in response to allegations that Republicans that run the elections in his state are deliberately limiting in-person early voting hours to discourage blacks, who early-vote disproportionately compared to whites and lean overwhelmingly Democratic. His response to these claims:
"...bullshit. Quote Me."
