2010 is not next year - it's already here. Just ask the chairs of Ohio's major political parties, Kevin DeWine of the Ohio Republican Party and Chris Redfern of the Ohio Democratic Party. And a new Quinnipiac poll shows some surprises in the races for governor and US senator, and none are good news for the Democrats.
The vote on casino gambling in Issue 3 is wrapped up, and now its backers are moving ahead with their plans to have the four casinos up and running in two and a half years. Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert and the top brass at casino operator Penn National came to the Statehouse this week to meet with the governor and legislative leaders, as some lawmakers and Gov. Ted Strickland consider proposals to change the amendment.
In the last decade - Ohio voters have seen at least one constitutional amendment proposal every year except 2007. The subject of the many recent attempts to add to the Ohio Constitution came up at the Columbus Metropolitan Club this week, in a discussion moderated by Karen Kasler.
More talk about the process of changing the Ohio Constitution - and why - continues with two experts in election-related issues. Catherine Turcer is with the government watchdog group Ohio Citizen Action. David Hansen is one of the trio of conservatives who make up LetOhioVote.org. That group won a victory when the Ohio Supreme Court ordered Gov. Strickland's slots at racetracks plan to go to the ballot.
