Ohio Senate Republicans voted last week to place a controversial ballot question before voters in August that, if passed, would make it harder to amend the state constitution.
Voters would decide if the state should require 60% of the vote to enact proposed amendments instead of a simple majority of 50% plus one.
Both the resolution and another measure to establish a special August election to vote on the resolution are moving forward, thanks to a million-dollar cash infusion from an out-of-state GOP mega-donor.
It’s our weekly Reporter Roundtable.
