That's great! Also, pretty close to reality and very scary.

No, it's not even close to reality. I oppose the only issue on the ballot, Issue 1. Had they proposed it several years ago I might have voted for it because special interest referendums were showing up every election - casinos, casino expansion, cannabis, all sorts of constitutional amendments that should not have been amendments at all.

No, I oppose Issue 1 because it is only intended to stop a referendum on abortion in Ohio. I'm mostly pro-life, but the issue should be decided honestly. not through political trickery. The Ohio GOP is dishonest in their claim of protecting us from special interests.

I also oppose Issue One, which is “only” issue on the ballot in a very expensive special election.

The hope was that no one would turn out to vote against it, but judging by the yard signs there seems to be quite a bit of interest in defeating it.

Good.

Also redistricting (huge problem here) , minimum wage, and several other issues.

We already had a referendum on redistricting a few years ago. Didn't fix it.

I have long thought it's a little too easy to get a referendum on the ballot today, but there's way too much impediment in this bill.
