Ohio has $66 Billion Dollars in public pension debt. Ohioans have that bill to pay, and now influenced by $30 Million Dollars of Union paid television advertising, they've overturned a provision to help them come to terms with it.
Hey njbchbum, it's their state and their pocketbooks. How soon before Ohio is begging the Federal Govt. for help and their problem becomes yours? You got enough problems with the public union debt in your own state. That's one reason I fled NJ and burned all bridges behind me.
This win was a singular win event for the Democrats in this election. In the same state of Ohio the voters voted in every district, liberal or conservative, to reject the mandate of ObamaCare. It's only symbolic, but it tells you more than the confusingly worded ballot on collective bargaining did in terms of voter mood in the state.
