I do not live in Ohio, but I am breathing a sigh of relief and sending out a huge thank you to the Ohio voters who turned out in a big way for this.

Now just make sure you hold the politicians responsible for this wildly unpopular and anti-democratic debacle accountable in your election ads.

In a rare move, I'm proud of my fellow ohioans. I was honestly expecting this to pass. I didn't think the 3 "no" votes from our house would amount to much. I sit here though proud of all those that saw this obvious BS and turned out to vote it down!

As an Ohioan I was to emphasize that part. There are 8 million registered voters in our state and there were 3 million votes cast in this election. Luckily the issue didn’t pass but I really want to know what the 5 million people that didn’t vote (you had 3 full weeks with early voting) thought was more important than preventing our Rights from eroding even further.

The easiest answer is because this was a special election in the middle of August with just one item on the ballot, which is exactly why the GOP broke their own new rule eliminating special elections in August, because they were hoping voter apathy would push them over the finish line. I’m very happy, and slightly surprised that they ended up being wrong, but I don’t think they’ll take any kind of lesson from this.
