Ohio's August Election Sparks Controversy and Legal Action
The One Person One Vote coalition, along with three Ohio residents, has filed a lawsuit with the Ohio Supreme Court, arguing that the August election set by the Legislature to make it harder to amend Ohio's Constitution is illegal. The ballot measure, if approved by voters, would require 60% of voters to enact constitutional amendments instead of a simple majority. The lawsuit says that's not legal and asks the Supreme Court to direct Secretary of State Frank LaRose to scrap the election.
