This story makes me want to go sit in the bed of my truck with a bullion at the polls, reiterating the lie the GOP has twisted the ballot language to read.
Vote YES on 1 in Ohio and for God's sake, vote Dems for our supreme court seats.
It is sad watching Dave Yost and his staff fight to death to make it as if the reproductive rights ballot initiative never passed in Ohio and never changed anything. Utah dusting off the Ohio playbook is not exactly reassuring.
Woman's CIty Club, League of Woman Voters, Common Cause, Cincinnatus, and Greater Cinti Voter Collaborative are working with CNP to put on a rally in support of Issue 1. the Ohio ballot amendment, on Fountain Square, this coming Sat, 9/14, at noon. Please do come if you can - and share the news with any and all of your contacts. While the event is intended to educate voters about the amendment, we also need confirmed supporters to come to draw attention to the amendment!
Missouri here. We'll find out tomorrow if our Supreme Court is totally corrupt or not regarding the reproductive ballot initiative, which, BTW, we had 200,000 more signatures than needed! A quote from Jess Piper over at The View From Rural Missouri: "The Judge who ruled that the abortion amendment should be withheld from the ballot is an appointee of our Republican Governor, Mike Parson. Even further, this Judge served as General Counsel, or Chief Legal Officer for Governor Parson before his appointment. This Judge was just recently elevated to Circuit Judge in a newly created position a few weeks back. That’s convenient. The Judge’s name? Christopher Limbaugh. Yes, he is kin to that Limbaugh."
Imagine my horror at finding out today that we have THAT POS here in MO as a judge. All I can say, is hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. We are going to keep fighting until every last one of them is out of office!
David, you are a beacon of hope in these dark times. And I’m excited to see so many women in the fight to save our democracy. Crafting such convoluted language will surely result in very many pretzels. But we’re on to them!
"But there’s a third pattern that has also emerged:
the closer the people get to overthrowing those who’ve hijacked these states, those in gerrymandered power don’t back off. They actually fight harder. The more desperate they are…the closer they come to losing the gerrymandering that seals them off from the people—the more aggressively they engage in lawlessness, lies and outright abuse of the government power they wield.
That sounds like heated rhetoric, I know. But the following examples show it’s no exaggeration:
The people of Missouri experienced this when they voted to end gerrymandering by ballot initiative a few years back. The legislature simply ignored the change and overturned that reform two years later.
Gerrymandering remains in Missouri. And as we speak, a politicized judge (looking to be the state’s next Attorney General) has stopped a referendum to protect reproductive freedom in its tracks."

Oh he'll, just vote BLUE every where!
