Campaigns for and against the measure are spending their final days attempting to mobilize supportive voters in what both sides say looks like a tight race.
Rep. Jim Jordan speaking at an Issue 1 rally / political event in Marysville on Sunday, Aug. 6, 2023 hosted by the Union County Republican Party.MARYSVILLE, Ohio — The high-stakes election to decide State Issue 1, the proposal to make it harder to amend the state constitution, is almost here.
“This truly is an election in which turnout will determine the outcome,” said Dennis Willard, a spokesman for One Person One Vote, the anti-Issue 1 campaign group. Early voting continued to be heavy over the weekend, with Cuyahoga County hitting 83,920 ballots cast. Including another 9,000 mail votes elections officials expect to receive in the coming days, the early vote alone in the county is expected to narrowly exceed overall turnout for the special primary election last August, when 92,042 voters cast ballots.
that is being pursued for the November ballot because that plan seeks to change state law, not the state constitution. Ryan said Issue 1 would limit Ohioans’ freedom to make their own decisions about issues that affect their day-to-day lives. He said Republicans, meanwhile, are trying to change the rules of the game to help them impose their unpopular views on the rest of the state.
“I think the libertarian streak that’s in some Republicans, allowing people to express themselves through their vote, I think that’s enough to carry the ball — if we get out to vote,” Ryan said.
