Voters in Ohio went to the polls to decide whether to approve a measure known as Issue 1 that would raise the bar for constitutional amendments on the ballot. In the ultimate irony, the vote against changing the amendment process exceeded the 60% supermajority that the special election was seeking to require in the first place.
Fascist asshole Richard Uihlein spent $4 million of his own money on this amendment, and he doesn’t even have any connections to Ohio.
I’m sure if he dropped $4 million, it’s probably a drop in the bucket for him, but that shit has still gotta sting!

I dunno about you guys, but Canadians get HUGE tax write-offs for political donations, so maybe the benefits outweigh the loss here.
And the GOP just learned an important lesson … never let the people decide 'cause they are often smarter than the manipulative politicians (Brexit aside ofc).
