Dont have an argument not based on emotion?

That is what many on the left in Ohio are doing, making it an emotional vote.

I am making an informed decision with my vote. Based on facts and numbers, as well as experience.

You're voting based on talking points.

How are you voting on the other issues? Yes or no, without looking it up.

I am voting based on my own critical thinking process.

If you want the status quo, go ahead vote no. I am voting yes, at least I am willing to sacrifice a little for the big picture. Not the warm fuzzy scare tactics employed by the left of Ohio

I am looking into them, if I am ill informed on any of them, I will not vote either way on them. But yes, I am looking at all the issues

I think the people of Ohio have a lot to think about, but whatever they choose will cast the die for a future of employment or unemployment in Ohio.

I hope the people choose wisely. Their economic future rides on their decision at the polls tomorrow. Best wishes, Ohioans. Regardless of what you choose, it's your collective decision, and our prayers are with you and your families.

WASHINGTON -- Two recent polls in Ohio suggest an overwhelming defeat in the offing for Issue 2, the ballot measure that would ratify Republican Gov. John Kasich's controversial limits on collective bargaining by state public employees. But past misfires in polling on statewide referendums provide good reason for caution until all votes are counted on Tuesday night.

An automated, recorded-voice telephone survey conducted over the weekend by the Democratic firm Public Policy Polling (PPP) found voter sentiment trending against Issue 2, by a margin of 59 to 36 percent.

A live interview poll conducted a week earlier by Quinnipiac University found a similar result: By a 56 to 33 percent margin, Ohio's registered voters said they oppose limiting collective bargaining for public employees, as Kasich's Senate Bill 5 does.

The Democrats secret weapons in the 2012 election are the Republican governors of Ohio, Florida, and Wisconsin.

Keep it up, boys.

Anyone interested in the Issue 2 vote in Ohio?

I've been talking to people today, it doesn't look good for issue 2.

That is because many do not understand issue 2. It is like anything else in politics.

One side uses fear tactics to make people think that our safety is at risk, and the other side tries to get the point across that A yes vote on Issue 2 will make long overdue reforms to unfair and costly government practices in Ohio, while helping to get government spending under control and making government more accountable to taxpayers.

official arguments FOR/YES issue 2

Official arguments for and against Ohio Senate Bill 5 Veto Referendum, Issue 2 (2011) - Ballotpedia

Official argument against/NO on issue 2

OMG we are all going to die by the hand of "big corporations"

I am voting YES No really I am voting YES

Bottom line is that the vast majority of Ohio voters believe that unions have a right to exist and that members of those unions have a right to fair collective bargaining. That does not mean that voters are against public workers paying more for their benefits, but it is something that needs to be negotiated.

 

[auditor0007]

Anyone interested in the Issue 2 vote in Ohio?

Yup, and it's going down. Actually received a call asking me to vote no today, so the "no" forces are out in force. They had twenty people with signs at the corner down the block tonight. They are everywhere.

The only bad thing about tomorrow is that we can't send Kasich packing. Unfortunately we're stuck with him for another three plus years. Talk about buyers remorse.

 

[auditor0007]

Actually, it looks great Sarah, if you're voting against it.

 

[auditor0007]

A vote in favor of issue 2 supports keeping legislation that creates limits on collective bargaining rights for public employees. Current polling shows firm popular support against issue 2, and in favor of repealing the limitations. However, come election time the results could indeed be very different depending on how actually gets out to vote.

This is the biggest issue on the ballot and I expect voter turnout to be very high for an off year election. Every block I drive down has a numerous signs to vote no on 2. You can hardly find a vote yes sign, and I live in an area that is predominantly Republican.
