Like pretty much everyone, I was surprised by the veto, but even more, and pleasantly so, by DeWine’s rationale for it. This, on the other hand, is absolutely predictable.

I’d like to think that a petition could be drafted and this issue could be put on the ballot, but I’m not sure it would be as successful as Issue 1 was this past November. Issue 1 proved to me that Ohio is not as red as I had feared, but I’m not yet convinced it’s as blue as I would hope.
