VOTERS IN OHIO PLEASE Vote NO for Issue 2! It sounds good and all but when you ready everything it is to confusing, not to mention if and when the comity "ABUSE ITS POWER" there is no way to get those people off the comity. You don't vote them in they are picked. So you can not vote them out. This is just a way for them to start taking our rights way one by one. Think about it. Example Romney he wants to take a woman choice away. What is that. "SO VOTE NO ON ISSUE 2 UNTIL THEY MAKE IT MORE CLEAR AND LESS CONFUSING, NOT TO MENTION THEY ADD A STIPULATION IN THERE WE CAN VOTE THEM OUT WHEN THEY ABUSE THEIR POWER"!!!!!!!!!!!
