2023 election

School boards have become a battleground for the so-called 'culture wars.' Voters across the state will be shaping their communities' education landscape when they cast ballots today.

In the face of an election that’ll decide the future of abortion access and recreational marijuana in Ohio, more than 2 million eligible voters likely won’t cast a ballot.

Early voting turnout for Ohio's Nov. 7 election - which has statewide questions on abortion and reproductive rights and recreational marijuana - has outpaced the number of voters who cast early ballots in the August special election.

While the constitutional amendment on reproductive rights on this week’s ballot in Ohio is getting most of the attention and money, the second question - whether the state should legalize recreational marijuana - is a big one too.

Among Christians, the strongest opposition has come from Catholic and evangelical denominations, but other religious leaders have rallied for Issue 1.

The cost of the August special election in which voters defeated an amendment to make it harder to change Ohio’s constitution has increased to $18 million.

Early voting numbers in Ohio for the Nov. 7 election on Issues 1 and 2, as well as local candidate and issue races, are up 8% from the August special election, a statewide election on just one constitutional amendment.

Supporters of Issue 2 are airing a new ad that says Ohio is losing tax revenues to Michigan because so many Buckeyes go to the state up north to buy marijuana.

Issue 1, the amendment that would enshrine abortion into the Ohio Constitution, contains other reproductive rights that backers of the proposal say are necessary to protect Ohiaons.
