Issue 1, the only item on Ohio’s Aug. 8 special election ballot, has failed. It proposed the following: -60% of eligible voters would have been required to vote on any amendment to the constitution, as opposed to the current simple majority. -Ballot measure campaigns would have been required to collect signatures from all 88 Ohio counties, instead of the current 44. -It would have removed campaigns' typical cure period to collect additional signatures if an initial petition's number of valid signatures was not reached. 📷 Courtesy Tim Ide, Flickr #issueone #ohio #specialelection #aug8election #ohiovoting #ohioconstitution #constitution #ohiovoting #voting #issue1
