Ohio Issue 1 Vote August 8
Since 1912, Ohio has used a simple majority to pass a constitutional amendment. Issue 1 would raise that threshold to 60% of the vote.
Vote No.
This seems like it would make it harder for Ohioans to vote to make abortion and pot legal, against the wishes of the gerrymandered Republican legislature. I would vote no.

Vote No.
1 person = 1 vote
We need to prevent 40% of the population from being able to decide for the majority of Ohioans.
15 0 ReplyYou’d have to be a fucking moron to vote Yes. I mean, like drinking bleach, shooting-self-in-foot stupid.
So I expect “Yes” to have a frighteningly high turnout.

Please vote no, I can't think of a single advantage or positive outcome to raising the requirement to 60%.
6 0 ReplyNot only 60%, but ONE HUNDRED % requirement for county signatures. Literally 1 county could stop an entire vote.

Issue 1 = 60% vote to pass changes to the State's constitution
Or another way to put it, Issue 1 = 40% vote to stop changes to the State's constitution.
Why should 40% be able to control what goes through?
6 1 ReplyNot from Ohio. I think it’s 50%. Simple majority
2 0 ReplyIt's more than just the percentage look at the county and signature requirements
It'll destroy a check and balance
