Don't think it should have passed anyway, but it definitely needs corrections for adult establishments, veterans halls, and private clubs.

Casino down by Kentucky has dropped 24% in business since Jan 1 and they aren't alone.

I just voted.

"Total Votes: 1984"

Probably just a coincidence.

Our county officials are trying to pass a county-wide no smoking ban. Those of us who oppose the ban are evil people. It is a private property concern....not to be mandated by local officicals; causing a big dust-up!

Must be a liberal rag instead of a newspaper. yes-35.2; No-64.8; 2480 votes.

The smoking ban is killing bar and the live music business here in Ohio.

Friggin' smoke Nazis!

So, you're a social engineering expert.

No: 34%

Yes: 66%

You live in a Nazi state.

And even though I took up residence in Indiana 24 years ago, I still have to commute and pay state taxes to Illinois.

Where is the “The damned nanny statist should shove the ban up their arses!” selection?

Adults don’t need keepers and we sure as crap don’t need government busy-bodies trying to dig their filthy little claws into even more of our lives.

Devil take all the would be socialist do-gooders!
