Ballot Language OK’d for Bail, Voting Issues

Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose has announced that a proposed constitutional amendment requiring public safety to be considered when setting bail will be Issue 1 on the Nov. 8 ballot. A proposed constitutional amendment barring non-citizens from voting in local elections will be Issue 2.

Opponents of both measures are taking issue with the ballot language. Just like the state’s redistricting disputes, the ballot issues could end up before the Supreme Court of Ohio. 8/23/2022
