New data shows more than half of all violent crimes are committed by a very small numbers of offenders. Lawmakers are now working to target that tiny group. And more thoughts on legislation that would dramatically change rules on unions in Ohio.

Another voter registration drive is underway in Ohio, with just a few days remaining before the deadline. The New Voters Project had been working in six states, but has now moved in to Ohio and eight other states, targeting 2 million people between 18 and 24 years old. Mara Friedman is with the Ohio group. The group operates alongside the Ohio Public Interest Research Group, a liberal-leaning consumer watchdog group. But the statewide and national organizers have support from politicians from both parties. And the group doesn’t have a lot of time. The voter registration deadline is October 4. |
