Ohio Issues 1 and 2

Summit County Progressive Democrats urge “No” votes on State Ballot Issues 1 and 2.  State Issue 1 would unnecessarily and unfairly amend the Ohio Constitution concerning standards and procedures for setting bail where there are public safety concerns.  State Issue 2 would remove the power of local communities to decide who can vote in their own elections as well as the ability of 17 year olds to vote in a primary election when they will be 18 at the time of the general election.

SCPD Board members John Galonski and Tania Nemer dissented as to Issue 1.
