  • 2018 Post-General Election Update

    2018 Post-General Election Update

    2018 post-general election update November 7, 2018 On Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Ohioans cast ballots in the 2018 general election. For the first time since 2006, five statewide elected offices were up for election without an incumbent running in the 2018 general election. Federal offices, including all Ohio U.S. Representatives seats and one U.S. Senate seat, two Ohio Supreme Court seats, all seats in the Ohio House of Representatives and 17 Ohio Senate seats were on the ballot. Many counties in Ohio and around the country reported record- breaking early voter turnout. Nearly 1.5 million ballots were requested by mail and in person, and an estimated 1.3 million had been cast as of the close of early voting on November 5, 2018. Here is Bricker & Eckler’s overview of the 2018 general election results and details on races of particular interest. STATEWIDE BALLOT ISSUES Issue 1: This proposed constitutional amendment was filed as the “Neighborhood Safety, Drug Treatment, and Rehabilitation Amendment.” If adopted, the amendment would have, among other things, required reductions in sentencing in certain situations, mandated that certain criminal offenses or uses of any drugs, such as fentanyl and heroin, can only be classified as a misdemeanor, and prohibited jail time as a sentence for obtaining, possessing or using such drugs until an individual’s third offense within 24 months.

    August 2020 Legislative Update

    Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission Monthly Legislative Update August 2020 Joseph Garrity Director of Government Affairs + Strategic Initiatives (614) 233-4127 [email protected] What’s Happening Ohio House Removes Householder as Speaker and Replaces With Cupp; Major Fallout Ensues Following the shocking announcement that federal racketeering charges were brought against then Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder (R-Glenford) and four others in a case described as “likely the largest bribery [and] money laundering scheme ever perpetrated against the people of the state of Ohio” by U.S. Attorney David DeVillers on July 21st, the Ohio House of Representatives swiftly voted to vacate the Office of Speaker and voted to fill the vacancy with veteran lawmaker Rep. Bob Cupp (R-Lima) nine days later. Householder, along with adviser Jeff Longstreth and lobbyists Matt Borges, Juan Cespedes, and Neil Clark, are alleged to have received $60 million to “pass and maintain” House Bill 6 (Callender-Wilkin), a controversial subsidy of FirstEnergy Solutions (FES) that passed last year. The investigation is ongoing, though DeVillers said the announcement marked a shift from a covert to an overt investigation that will see many more subpoenas served and search warrants executed. On July 30th, shortly before the House vote to vacate the Office of Speaker, Householder, Borges, Cespedes, and Clark were indicted on a federal racketeering charge, in addition to the 501(c)(4) organization Generation Now. U.S. Attorney David DeVillers said that the investigation remains ongoing, adding that “dark money is a breeding ground for corruption.” By a unanimous 91-0 vote, the House on July 30th voted to vacate the Office of Speaker.
