We have been taken over by the GOP Borg, and our former chief Justice, though she is a Republican, is trying to get a citizen redistricting initiative on the ballot. AG Dave Yost keeps finding the language in the initiative unacceptable, and I seriously think he would find any initiative language unacceptable because he wants to keep the GQP in power. The General Assembly has a habit of ignoring the voters’ wishes as expressed in initiatives. They ignored the redistricting initiative, and failed to obey 3 different Supreme Court of Ohio orders to redistrict three illegally drawn state senate district. The legislators are ignoring our wishes on Issue 1, which passed by a significant margin.
The First Energy bribery scandal is by no means over. Former Speaker Larry Householder got 20 years in prison for his crimes, and former Ohio GOP chair Matt Borges got 5 years. The bill enacted as a result of their bribery is still law, and Ohio taxpayers and energy consumers are still paying for First Energy. Now, former Ohio Department of Energy head Sam Randazzo has been indicted and arraigned for his role in the First Energy scandal, and some are wondering what Gov. Mike DeWine and Lt. Gov. Jon Husted knew about the First Energy scandal.
