As I wrote to you last week, a special election on August 8th could
determine the state's ability to require more than a simple majority for a
ballot measure on abortion. Issue 1 is on the ballot requiring 60% voter
approval for ballot measures to be adopted. This, in turn, if it passes,
would require any effort on abortion access to surpass the 60% threshold,
as well as any other measure.
The reality of this is not that they want a "supermajority" to pass a
constitutional amendment but that the minority (40%) can block any changes
that the majority of the electorate wants. An abortion measure has already
met the required signature amount for the November ballot - close to
500,000 signatures from 55 counties in Ohio. Without a 60% + 1 majority in
November, abortion will remain heavily restricted in the state, as a
six-week ban is already in place.

[ [link removed]- ]John, this may be happening in Ohio now, but GOP-led states
across the country will attempt to block the will of the voters by making
it harder to participate in a direct democracy. Help us fight back, and
fight for our rights.
