ohio. gop governors and state legislatures across the country have been passing measures aimed at keeping democratic voter away from the polls and really it's only getting worse. joining me now to discuss this bigger picture in our panel tonight is msnbc contributor michael eric dyson, back with us. and also goldie taylor, managing editor of the goldie taylor project and msnbc contributor. goldy, you heard the comment from huested, and he's on fox news doing these interviews, because they know -- the righties know how important ohio is and how important the secretary of state's position is in ohio. the democrats want to win in '16, they're going to need ohio as they have needed in past elections. but he said easy to vote and hard to cheat. do you believe that? >> absolutely not. you know, these republicans, secretaries of state are nothing more than deputies of the national gop. if you look at the states where we are closest in terms of flipping blue or red, that's where the pressure is on.
