The article below discusses the efforts of Cecil Thomas, a state senator from Ohio, to expand and diversify the jury rolls in the Buckeye State. Senator Thomas has introduced legislation (SB 200) to require Ohio counties to use both voter rolls and driver licenses to summon jurors. Currently, Ohio and Wyoming are the only two states that mandate only one source for identifying potential jurors i.e., voter registration rolls. Using other source lists in Ohio, such as a driver license, is at the discretion of each individual jury commission.
