[skews13]

Ohio voters rejected an effort that would have made it harder to pass citizen-led ballot initiatives, in a rebuke of Republican efforts to block an expansion of abortion rights that’s on the ballot in November.

Issue 1, which would have raised the threshold to pass citizen-led ballot measures from a simple majority to a 60 percent threshold failed, Decision Desk HQ projected. With about 24 percent of the votes in, “no” led by an almost 40-point margin.

Issue 1 falls: Ohio voters reject raising voter approval threshold to amend constitution

In a turnout that was much higher than expected for a rare summertime statewide vote, Ohioans rejected an effort to change the constitution to make it harder to pass citizen-led amendments, and to require groups to gather signatures from all 88 counties to make the ballot at all.

This is not good for repubs. They tried to move the goal post and they lost.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio voters on Tuesday resoundingly rejected a Republican-backed measure that would have made it more difficult to change the state’s constitution, setting up a fall campaign that will become the nation’s latest referendum on abortion rights since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned nationwide protections last year.

Voters in Ohio reject GOP-backed proposal that would have made it tougher to protect abortion rights

While abortion was not directly on the special election ballot, the result marks the latest setback for Republicans in a conservative-leaning state who favor imposing tough restrictions on the procedure.

The defeat of Issue 1 keeps in place a simple majority threshold for passing future constitutional amendments. It would have raised that to a 60% supermajority, which supporters said would protect the state’s foundational document from outside interest groups.

The only way ReNaziKlans can win is when they lie, cheat and steal. In Ohio, they have been blocked. They know are on the losing of Women's Reproductive Rights and they know the way they win to lie, cheat and steal. This time they failed. Watch MAGA MAGGOT MOTHER FUCKERS, Abortion Rights will be on the ballot in every state

While abortion was not directly on the special election ballot, the result marks the latest setback for Republicans in a conservative-leaning state who favor imposing tough restrictions on the procedure. Ohio Republicans placed the question on the summer ballot in hopes of undercutting a citizen initiative voters will decide in November that seeks to enshrine abortion rights in the state.

ReNaziKlans in Ohio were making a direct assault on Democracy and they lost. Suck on that ReNaziKlans.

Authoritarians' attempts to retrogress half-a-century are being rejected as personal freedom triumphs state by state.

Watch the GOP go mealy-mouth before November, 2024.

Hard to believe they got such a turnout for an August election.
Doesn’t look good for Republicans in November but I imagine they have more tricks up their sleeves to subvert the will of the voters.

Nope. They aren't smart enough to shut up, and now it is probably too late. Breaking trust with the electorate and trying to force it down their throats is a serious error.

On the face of it, one would believe that Ohio Republicans were trying to subvert the rights of the people by stripping them of their ability to create amendments. But this could be a blessing in disguise. Even though an amendment that could enshrine abortion into the state’s constitution would only pass by a simple majority, the Republicans could also submit their own amendment next year banning abortions entirely.

And it would only need 51% to pass.

They will come up more ideas to repress voters. That is their only chance.

Thank GOD ! No court or government entity should have any rights in a woman's decision . That was the most terrible over reach they ever attempted.

Abortion ( healthcare ) is the number one issue in politics. Not guns. Not immigration. Not woke. Not voter fraud. Not taxes. Not LGBTQ.

Abortion.

You would think Republicans would have gotten the memo, when the big red wave that didn't happen last year, was house that fell on them.

Guess what will be the number one issue in politics with voters next year?

Tomorrow we'll hear all about this election was crooked.....with no evidence.
