And the Winner Is...


OK well the people have spoken. Thank you to all of those who voted yesterday or via mail in ballot. For those of you that didn't vote you are banned from complaining about anything that your vote could have changed (yes, this trumps the first amendment-I asked the Constitution Czar)
Issue 1-Bonuses for Vets. This issue passed. According to the Dispatch it may take more than a year for the troops to get their checks. Why doesn't it take that long for the state to send you a bill?
Issue 2-Livestock Care Board. This issue passed. This sailed through with almost 65% of the vote.
Issue 3-Casinos in Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and Toledo. This issue passed. This issue passed quite easily although it was defeated in Franklin County. Estimates are that construction will begin in 2010 with wagering by 2012. I cant wait to visit one of these places.
Heath and Chillicothe residents vote to limit red light "spy" cameras. The scary thing is that these votes were actually close.
School Tax Issues-Southwestern passed, Westerville passed, Worthington passed, Reynoldsburg did NOT pass.
