Ohio voters just took firm positions on abortion and reproductive rights and adult-use recreational marijuana Tuesday, but gerrymandered Ohio lawmakers are already planning to flout the voters' wishes. This is what gerrymandering brings.

Ohio voters just took firm positions on abortion and reproductive rights and adult-use recreational marijuana Tuesday, but gerrymandered Ohio lawmakers are already planning to flout, ignore, challenge, and abuse the voters’ wishes. This is what gerrymandering brings. This is why it’s a fundamental poison in the lifeblood of our republic.

Mere hours after Ohio voters passed the Issue 1 reproductive rights amendment with 56.62%, according to unofficial results, and the Issue 2 recreational marijuana law with 57% (both getting nearly 2.2 million votes), Ohio Republican legislative leaders signaled they would not respect the will of the people.

      I think we should spread the word in left leaning circles about jury nullification. If you’re on trial for beating the shit out of a Republican, and I’m on the trial, I will find you not guilty. Even if there’s a 4k video of you curb stomping Maga Bob while holding your ID.

      Voting is important but ultimately might makes right.
