To have no say in something #2 (permalink) Mon May 15, 2006 12:01 pm   To have no say in something
 

The sentence "She does not have a say in it" is the correct one, meaning she does not have the right to decide.

Other ways to express this sentence could be:

She does not have any say in it.
She has little/no say in it.
