  • Ohio General Election Guide General Election: November 3, 2020
    Ohio General Election Guide General Election: November 3, 2020 Summary of Races: The biggest story in Statehouse races as we approach Election Day is the recent charges that have been brought against Larry Householder. The criminal complaint brought against him alleges he took part in a $61 million racketeering scheme. As the case pends in federal court, many of the campaign funds that the House Republican Caucus rely on for financial support have been frozen and likely will not be able to be accessed until after the election. In what is already a tough cycle because of the presidential election, having the financial resources compromised puts many of the races in question. Having competed against a super majority for several years and seeing the presidential election as a boon for their base, the House Democrats were already looking to pick up quite a few seats. With the new financial woes that the Republicans could face, Democrats see this election as their chance to bring better balance to the party scale in the People’s Chamber. This impact could bleed into the Senate races as well. It is also worth noting that although the House has voted Larry Householder out of the Speaker position, he remains a Representative and will also still appear on the ballot in his district. However, since the news of the criminal charges broke, four individuals have declared candidacies against him. Since the petition deadline had passed by the time of this arrest, all four opponents will be write-in candidates. At a minimum, there will be at least 19 new members of the House and five new members of the Senate.

  • 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. Issue 1 was defeated by 63.41 percent. The Ohio Safe and Healthy Communities Campaign led the way in support of the proposed constitutional amendment. Supporters of Issue 1 were financially supported by Open Society Policy Center, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and the Open Philanthropy Project Action Fund.

  • December 12, 2016 131ST GENERAL ASSEMBLY ENDS LAME DUCK
    December 12, 2016 131ST GENERAL ASSEMBLY ENDS LAME DUCK SESSION WITH SEVERAL MUNICIPAL ISSUES ADDRESSED The lame duck session ended Friday morning at about 3:30 am and as the dust settled, we’re proud to report that Ohio municipalities were able to claim a number of victories, a few draws, and only a limited number of losses. Now, we immediately turn our agenda to the next General Assembly, with the release of our first broad based policy report tomorrow. We would like to express our gratitude toward the many members of the General Assembly who worked with us on these many issues. Many members worked with us late into the night many times and worked hard to consider our concerns. Below, we review the legislation that effected municipalities in the final days of the session. Each of the following bills has been sent to Governor Kasich for his consideration. First, is Senate Bill 331, introduced by Senator Bob Peterson (R-Washington Court House). The original bill would regulate the sale of dogs from pet stores and dog retailers and to require the Director of Agriculture to license pet stores. This bill was introduced to create a statewide regulatory framework for pet breeding. The OML opposed this portion of the bill as an infringement on Home Rule and “single issue rule” problems which is the part of the Ohio Constitution that prohibits the legislature from passing bills with multiple subjects. This bill became a “Christmas tree bill” where numerous amendments were added, including language from AT&T on the 5G roll out Amendment 1: As mentioned above and as many of our members are aware, the House Finance committee amended the bill to create new regulations concerning micro wireless facility operators for their use of municipally owned land.
