The Ohio constitution has historically been too easy to amend. Since revision in 1855 there have been three added articles and 170 amendments. While this vote has been triggered as a defense against a pro abortion amendment, it remains true that the constitution should not be used merely as a repository of policy preferences. It should codify the structure and function of the constituted government body in question. A bar of 60% instead of 50%+1, serves this good purpose.
VOTING YES. My issue is the trainloads of money that out-of-state Anti-2A forces are lining up to try to overturn our Constitutional Carry law.
Just received my copy of Farm & Dairy, regional ag weekly.

Encouraging. Many people don’t know that the largest industry in Ohio is farming. Farmers don’t like to be told how to farm by out-of-state do-gooders either.
