Ohio special election results: Issue 1 fails

Hamilton County was the only Tri-State county to vote against the issue.

CINCINNATI -- "Meanwhile, One Person, One Vote — the group campaigning against Issue 1 — listed groups like The League of Women Voters of Ohio, Ohio Physicians for Reproductive Rights and the Ohio Education Association as its supporters. Former governors and attorneys general from both parties also came out against it.

'We could really tell people were on our side and were angry about it, and frankly even having to vote on this,' said Rachael Belz, CEO of Ohio Citizen Action. 'Our side was so passionate, I think in part because of everything that has been happening in Ohio for the past few years.'"
