Order Online : "The State of Ohio"
This week on "The State of Ohio": The Senate version of the budget is on its way, with just a few weeks remaining to hammer out differences with the House. Lawmakers try to clarify the state auditor's role with JobsOhio. And we revisit and update two controversial issues from the last year - the abortion debate in Ohio and the state's new exotic animals law and the facility it created.
 

Former Secretary of State pushes again for election reform law to go to ballot.
By Jo Ingles - March 5, 2012
Democratic backers of the November ballot issue to repeal a newly passed election reform law say the state needs to leave the issue alone right now and allow it to go to the ballot as planned. Former Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner says repealing the law and replacing it now with a new one would likely disenfranchise some voters.


Brunner says she’d like to see in person voting the weekend before the election restored for November and be in place like it was back in 2008. Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted says he wants the legislature to repeal the election reform law now. And he says if anything is put in place to replace it now, that legislation should be bipartisan.
