"Issue 1’s approval (56-44) will undo a 2019 state law passed by Republicans that bans most abortions after fetal cardiac activity is detected, with no exceptions for rape and incest. That law, currently on hold because of court challenges, is one of roughly two dozen restrictions on abortion the Ohio Legislature has passed in recent years."

Landslide!

Since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022, all seven states that have put the issue on the ballot - Ohio, Kansas, Vermont, Montana, Michigan, Kentucky, California - have voted to uphold the right of women to make their own reproductive healthcare choices.

Ohio voters enshrine abortion access in constitution in latest statewide win for reproductive rights

Keep in mind as legalizes and restores today, that

the motherfuckers in the Ohio who run this state tried to keep tonight — and I mean the will of the voters — from happening with a bullshit, anti-democratic special election to change the rules a few months ago.

They lost then and they’re losing tonight. Let’s see if they take their medicine and eat 💩 , as they really fucking should.

Just a reminder that is a red state that voted R in both 2016 and 2020. passed easily and it shows how popular access to abortion is.

5 days before 's August 8's regarding , the changed the locations of 50 voting precents for 47,000 voters. It's also the largest voting African American voting county in Ohio

There was no mainstream news coverage of it even though CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, etc all have press partners in Ohio and should have known about it

Newsweek covered it the day of the election.

This morning, I want to thank Frank LaRose for awakening a sleeping Ohio electorate.

Now that we have taken care of the dictators for a season, time to work on the abortion issue and Marijuana issue.

Ohio voters reject measure aimed at blocking abortion rights amendment.

The 19th reports: "The defeat of Ohio’s Issue 1 is a blow to efforts by conservatives who want to raise barriers to passing ballot measures that would establish a right to abortion."

@alfredo_liberal The "vote yes" folks didn't allow the press into the watch party. Cowards, just like their gutless leader Donald 'Bone Spur' Trump.

As always, I’m so proud of the organizers who secured today’s victory for democracy in . Thank you 🙏🏼 thank you for all your hard work!!! And a big 😘 to all the voters who showed up & showed out!

The fascist Republican agenda has FAILED yet again. Ohio now joins Kansas and Kentucky in rejecting the GOP's war against women. Today is yet another victory for CHOICE, COMMON SENSE, and FREEDOM.

the voters of "red" ohio just proved that they're effectively more to the left than all the politicians of the democratic party 🤣🤣🤣

Ohio voted against Issue 1

If it had passed it would have required ballot issues to pass by 60% instead of 50% + 1 vote.

Ohio plans a special vote in the fall to enshrine abortion access in the founding document of the state.

Republicans proposed Issue 1 hoping it to make it harder to pass abortion access protection.

Those who support #Issue1 back #limitations on #transgender #people's #rights. The thing that is most #dangerous about Issue 1, were it to pass, is that it can be utilized to #block just about any attempt to #create #change on a #constitutional #level.

Voted this morning. Very quick with only 1 thing on the ballot.
