I'm in Ohio and I cast a "No" vote. It was a tough call to align with the Democrats on this issue, but I considered the broader implications. What if there arises a necessity to amend the constitution in the future for those of us on the right side of history? That would demand a 60% majority, and blindly voting "Yes" might come back to haunt us. It's crucial to consider a wider range of matters beyond just abortion. While I share your discomfort with abortion, it's important to acknowledge that a "Yes" vote could have been detrimental for us. I have several friends who will side with republicans when it comes to the vote. They chose to vote no on Issue 1 because they realize the implications. They will however vote no on abortion as will I.
