Ohio Voters Approve Radical Amendment
Removing Limits on Abortion, Gender-Transition Procedures

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 11/7/2023 9:21:43 PM

Ohio voters approved a ballot measure Tuesday night that will effectively outlaw any restrictions on abortion and other procedures that involve reproduction, including gender-transition surgeries. The measure, known as Issue 1, will also remove parental-consent and notification requirements for minors who undergo the procedures. The amendment includes vague language about prohibiting any law that “directly or indirectly” would “burden” or “interfere” with “reproductive decisions.” Opponents of the measure argue it would also outlaw nearly any restrictions on abortion or other reproduction-related procedures,

This vote wasn't even close. Abortion for any reason and at any stage of the pregnancy. How tragic - how evil. God is not going to take kindly to this depravity. If this or gender change happened to my child without my consent - someone would likely suffer horribly.

#4~ Yes, may God have mercy on us--on this once God-fearing nation! The passage of this abominable amendment is beyond heart-wrenching and shameful to say the very least! Thanksgiving and God’s blessings for everyone who offered time, effort, money, and prayers to defeat this morally unacceptable amendment. #5~ “Someone check for cheating.” / Considering the enormous sums of money poured into Ohio by advocates of the perverted amendment to purchase publicity and mainstream media coverage, the possibility of buying votes has been bandied about. #15~ “Ohio, what have you done.” / Indeed, Ohioans have sown evil and may reap the harvest. The hearts of believers in Ohio are grieved for the disaster this amendment will bring from cradle to grave. Ldotter #l expressed it well, Maranatha.

Wait till parents find out the government can control their kids by trancing (which is impossible). And force girls to have abortions. Thy may not like government control, but they got it now! It’s not reproductive rights. The reproducing has already happened. It should be called “the right to murder. And why should taxpayers pay for someone’s abortion. If abortion is the correct thing to do there would be no controversy. It’s killing life. An innocent life who has no say in the matter. What’s next. ACLU going to get the death of four year olds cause mommy changed her mind, legalized.

This is not 5, 10, or 20+ years ago. This is a result of our media, but mostly our education system over those many years. Face it, parents and churches have been overwhelmed by the media and our education system. So, 1. We have relaxed after Roe was overturned. 2. We have been outspent on this issue since Roe was overturned. 3. There’s been no clear political voice by any politician or by the Republican Party since Roe was overturned. 4. We’ve allowed anti-life forces to go on the offensive without a pro-life effective response. 5. We’ve allowed the voting process (early, mail-in and whatever) to defeat weak (yes, that’s right) weak candidates who are unwilling to go to the mat on this issue. God help us, and God bless America.

Gotta hand it to the left. They beat the conservatives to the punch every time. Pretty easy to do when you have the media, the money, and don't care about the rule book. People of Ohio, you just voted to abandon your children. And if you ask those who voted for this if they support partial birth abortion and abortion up to birth, they will say no.

As a country we have gotten farther and farther away from God. It is actually okay to do anything opposite of His ways especially if a person supports the Democrat platform. What is a person to do? Keep believing and trusting in God. I am not focusing on other people's doorsteps but rather making sure my doorstep is clean. In the last few days, I am learning to turn to Him rather than people because there does not seem to be any honest people left. . .

#15, I know you know it’s not all Ohioans. I do not want to make excuses but the RNC was utterly useless in Ohio. We were inundated with outside money in enormous amounts. The DNC decided to use OhIo as a test case and pour millions and millions into this race to win it and use it as a strategy in other states. The ads were pervasive and false. It was all about emotion. Republicans just did not put the money here and their ads were lackluster. We need a real fighter for us and Ronna McRomney is just not cutting it. How many elections do Republicans have to lose under her leadership? Many Ohioans are heartbroken at the loss of Issue 1, but frankly, I expected it but hoped and prayed for a different outcome. I woke up this morning and after reading the results was just devastated. This state will become a Mecca for human harvesting of baby parts. How could this happen? Evil definitely is on the ascendancy. Ohio is proof of that. We have been a red state until recently and now we will reap the whirlwind because of the policies that have been passed. I am reeling in unbelief. What is it going to take to wake up people to the utter devastation that is coming? If democrats can do this to Ohio, they can do it anywhere. We must stop all this outside money in our state elections. People who don’t even live in a state can force an issue down the throats of voters who want no part of it.

Before Roe v Wade was overturned, it was estimated that a third of the states would incline towards more liberal abortion laws, a third for status quo and a third would tighten the restrictions. It seems to be playing out. Under our system States have all the residual powers held on behalf of the people. And it is within their legal right.

I always seem to remember a comment after I posted my first one. Here is another. To watch all of those gloating faces saddens me. In actuality, my heart goes out to women who cannot get pregnant or miscarry having to watch these ecstatic women rid themselves of their baby. From their view, it probably seems very unfair. . .

Ohio is predominantly a conservative state. There was a ton of out of state money involved with this. If it can happen here then it can happen anywhere. In addition to the out of state money cheating the vote is also probable. What is next, euthanasia for seniors?

What happened to the end of the world when the SCOUS couldn't find the right to murder your kid in the womb? All they did was give the right to the State, so here we are. The women of Ohio can now kill away while many states will protect these children. The rights not given to the Feds are preserved to the States, exactly what the founding fathers wanted.

Yes, #26, I do know. :) As regards Colorado's state RNC, it is worse than useless. This has been a problem here for a long time. Back when I had the time and energy to attend my county assemblies and went to my precinct caucuses, I just shook my head a lot and finally had to find other interests while still keeping my eye on local politics, now mainly with financial contributions. Colorado's DNC became a political powerhouse during the Gov. Hickenlooper days and is controlled by a handful of Denver law firms who finance practically every lefty initiative that is brought to the voters (especially to our young people) who are conditioned by the Denver msm and social media to support these initiatives. And it may get worse next year as my House representative Lauren Boebert is running for re-election against big Aspen money and her challenger, Adam Frisch, who is from guess where, Aspen, is outraising her by a wide margin. Boebert is one tough individual, but she has her work cut out for her this time because of how her House district was re-drawn to include dim strongholds. More to point of Brittany's piece, our legislature has already passed a late-term abortion bill that our Gov Polis happily signed into law which protects medical providers who perform the late-term procedures from any legal consequences. So, in reality, Colorado became the first official murder state of the unborn since Roe v Wade was overturned.

This bill made law will make Ohio the Mecca for abortion, infanticide, and transgender procedures in the country. This goes far past legalizing Roe versus Wade in the state. Ohio has definitely gone to the dark side.

The “good”:in this - Abortion and weed are no longer issues in Ohio, so it should allow state to return to red in 2024. The “bad” - expect every other blue / slightly red state to put amendment on their ballots in 2024 to ensure women and pot users to turn out in record numbers. These two perverse issues will outweigh inflation, crime, the border invasion, the green madness and Biden’s corruption. The really “bad” - it doesn’t matter who wins Republican nomination, Biden will win. Normality and morality no longer matter.

In Literature, I believe this is what is called foreshadowing. That is, I still firmly believe the demonrats cheated their *sses off in this election, and plan on doing the same in 2024, etc.,.. Honest elections are a relic of the past in the U.S. Just look at all the young-uns, if not the older people, who actually voted yes to this horrid measure. Even though there was a lot of cheating mixed in, the moral compass of many has been lost.

It is beyond unfair, #31. I’ve been there myself - nine years of fertility treatments only to conceive twins and miscarry one at 8 weeks and one at 16 weeks, the last of which involved a ruptured amniotic sac and almost killed me too. A couple of months after the second miscarriage, I was working in a shop when a woman came in and asked me to sign a petition supporting Planned Parenthood. I remained calm though I could feel my blood pressure skyrocketing and told her my story. I doubt that I changed her mind at all but she couldn’t wait to get out of my presence.

To listen to the ads over the last many weeks, most voters likely thought they were "fixing" the law recently passed by the legislature. The only issues addressed in the pro ads seemed to be the lack of exception for rape and incest, and to "keep government out of your personal decisions" (would that they felt that way about more things). The ads rarely if ever covered the scope of the amendment. Unfortunately, the ads to vote no were overshadowed by overwhelming numbers of ads to vote yes. And yes, they were misleading. Ohio is in for a rude awakening in the next few years. We get the government we deserve, and we're going to get it good and hard now.

#3, Actually support for Donald Trump does not “put every Republican on the endangered species list.” Several months ago Trump issued a very sensible and politically astute statement on abortion. He said that it was not smart at this time to push for restrictions. Better to let the overturning of Roe to play out in each state. He has been proven right as voters have been convinced that abortion will be outlawed in their states. The majority of Americans do not want abortion to be outlawed. Trump’s position aligns with the majority’s.

And I thought that the adults were responsible for making sure those that could not take care of themself or lacked the maturity to make life decisions were protected from those that have evil agendas, in Ohio, guess not. We will not be selling to any address in the state of Ohio, perhaps if enough good people just say no to the evil that Ohio has become some adults in Ohio will wake up.

Another aspect of voting for a law that is maddening is the wording of a proposed law. In CA we would have propositions that were so twisted in wording that if you voted "yes" it really meant "no". This is done to confuse the voter and win by any means possible. Another example of the failure of our public/government school system where our kids are not taught to think for themselves. Was this done in Ohio? I really don't think the people in Ohio believed they were voting for murdering innocent unborn babies. I think they were deceived by deceptive ads even as they have been deceived about Hamas, or Global warming, or deceived about who Obama really is. The Legacy Media, Universities/govt. schools, DNC, Leftists, are the deceivers.

#26's comment reminded me of an issue I've been grappling with of late. I have never understood how it's 'permissible' for out-of-state $ contributions to be 'accepted' by state election campaigns! By the same token, 'foreign' $'s shouldn't play a part in our national elections. Is this just a problem of enforcement, or are there legal issues I'm just not aware of?!?

Conservatives aren't a large enough voting group to make a difference on an issue like this. Most people don't want to tell someone else what they can or can't do, so leave it up to that individual to make up their mind - this includes Catholics. Democrats used language that appealed to people and didn't instill fear things were "going backwards". This issue should be off the table for future elections, thus, free-up people to vote on other issues. Democrats use this issue to influence Christian voters not to vote for the Republican if they were "pro choice" and didn't state it is murder. And, there just aren't enough dedicated pro-life voters but are enough who won't vote for a particular candidate simply due to this issue, which Democrats exploit. This is a settled issue in Ohio, and other states so any politician should be able to simply state it as such.

# 33, you may be right on the politics. But please don't make the mistake of looking at abortion as just another in a laundry list of issues. In the words of the late Paul Greenberg, a Jewish writer, abortion "goes to the heart of the two most important questions in the universe: the value of human life and the value of Truth." Greenberg was right, and that is why we will never be free to "move on" to other matters. "Abortion is at the core of everything that ails this country." ---- Rush Limbaugh

The abortion and gender-transition surgeries issues should have been on separate ballots, not included as one. I suspect voters were zeroed in on abortion at the expense of gender transition. Another GOP failure. They simply don't want to lead.

We reported previously about how a State Department official resigned over U.S. support for Israel in the Israel-Hamas war, and that more might be looking for an exit. There was also an internal memo written by two State Department staffers demanding that the U.S. support a ceasefire, as well as other similar thoughts submitted to the department's Dissent Channel. But now some Congressional staffers have just made a video on the Capitol steps to express their displeasure that the U.S. hasn't called for a ceasefire in the war. We are Congressional staffers are Capitol Hill and we are no longer comfortable being silent.

If Democrats re-nominate Joe Biden, the 2024 election could resemble the 1980 contest between Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan. Why? Because a large majority of Americans are worse off today than they were before Joe Biden took office. This CBS News poll illustrates the point. There is a lot of interesting information at the link, but let’s focus on what I think are the most important points. First, how are things going in America today? Generally speaking, do you feel things in America today are going… Very well: 5% Somewhat well: 22% Somewhat badly: 36% Very badly: 37% These are absolutely brutal numbers for an incumbent president.

The strike will be over as of 12:01 a.m. PT on Thursday, November 9, we hear, putting an end to more than seven months of labor unrest in Hollywood that saw the Writers Guild and SAG-AFTRA hit the picket lines in the industry’s first joint strike in more than 60 years. Culminating a dramatic day of studio earnings results and deadline ultimatums, the actors guild’s 17-member negotiating committee unanimously voted this afternoon to recommend a tentative

Palestinians and their allies have justified and even celebrated Hamas’s Oct. 7 massacre in Israel as a blow against Jewish oppression. But the 2 million Arab citizens of Israel have overwhelmingly responded by drawing closer to the Jewish state. Among Arab Israelis, prominent media personalities have helped lead an unprecedented surge in support for their country and opposition to their self-proclaimed liberator Hamas. Pro-Israel arguments that were previously almost unspeakable in the Arab mainstream have in recent weeks gotten a respectful hearing. Yoseph Haddad, a 38-year-old Christian Arab influencer, has skyrocketed to fame in Israel with his outspoken advocacy for the country in Hebrew, Arabic, and English. Haddad told

NEW YORK -- In a big upset, Republican Kristy Marmorato defeated incumbent Democrat Marjorie Velazquez for the New York City Council District 13 seat in the Bronx. Marmorato's win is a rare victory for a Republican in the borough, which has more registered Democrats. CBS New York spoke to Marmorato late Wednesday afternoon, and she talked about support from voters. "They actually believed that their vote counted and that their voice mattered in this race, and that is, emotionally, probably one of the most fulfilling things, that they believed in me as a person," she said.
Minnesota Supreme Court blocks bid to

The Minnesota Supreme Court on Wednesday rejected an attempt to block Donald Trump from the state’s GOP primary ballot next year based on the 14th Amendment’s “insurrection clause” but said the challengers can try again to block from the general election ballot if the former president wins the Republican nomination. The 14th Amendment, ratified after the Civil War, says US officials who take an oath to uphold the Constitution are banned from future office if they “engaged in insurrection.” But the Constitution doesn’t say how to enforce the ban, and it has only been applied twice since 1919, which is why many experts view these challenges as a long shot.

As the post-mortem analyses from Tuesday's off-year elections continue to roll in, there is some welcome news emerging from here in Loudoun County, Virginia: Buta Biberaj, the Soros-backed commonwealth's attorney who was soft on criminals, preferring instead to prosecute concerned parents, has been defeated by her Republican opponent, Bob Anderson. Biberaj is probably most well known for her despicable actions following two rapes committed by a "transgender" boy at county high schools; while the school board was failing to alert parents to the danger in their schools after the first rape, Biberaj was failing to file charges against the boy. This allowed the boy to return to school

When terrorists tell you who they are, believe them. Hamas’ terror-symps and useful idiots have spent four weeks marching through college campuses and city centers demanding a cease-fire. Meanwhile, Hamas tells the New York Times they want “permanent” war for their political purposes, and designed the October 7 massacres to get one. They envision a state of total war with Israel that will force other Arab nations to join them to destroy Israel and slaughter its Jews, and the weeks since have only brought them closer to that goal. Or at least, they think so: But in the bloody arithmetic of Hamas’s leaders, the carnage is not the regrettable outcome

State Senator John Whitmire and Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee ranked as the top two candidates in Houston's mayoral election, with Whitmire ahead by about 8% as of Tuesday night. Since neither cleared the threshold of 50% of the votes cast plus one, the contest will now go to a second round. The runoff election is scheduled for Saturday, December 9. Whitmire and Jackson Lee both stood out in a crowded field for their high levels of name recognition, decades of public service, and in Whitmire's case, a prodigious campaign war chest that enabled him to blanket the airwaves with commercials. Whitmire was first elected to the Texas House

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves (R) was projected to win reelection over Democrat Brandon Presley to secure a second term, according to Decision Desk HQ. Reeves was expected to have the edge in Tuesday’s election, although Presley put up what many observers considered a surprisingly competitive fight to try and flip the governor’s seat in the ruby-red state. Reeves won with the backing of former President Trump in a conservative stronghold state that hasn’t elected a Democratic governor in 20 years. In 2019, Reeves won by 5 points against Democrat Jim Hood, then the state’s attorney general, to fill the seat left empty by his term-limited Republican predecessor.

Republicans across social media are calling on Republican National Committee (RNC) chairwoman Ronna McDaniel to resign following Tuesday evening’s elections, which saw a major GOP loss in Kentucky. Republicans experienced a mixed night, as Democrats scored victories in Kentucky — reelecting Democrat Gov. Andy Beshear over Trump-backed candidate Daniel Cameron — as well as Virginia and Ohio. Democrats took control of the General Assembly in Virginia while pro-abortion activists won in Ohio, as Ohioans passed issue one, codifying the supposed “right” to murder an unborn child in the state constitution.

Hillary Rodham Clinton. The mere mention of the name conjures everything from love and adulation, in certain circles on the left, to justifiable disgust and condemnation among many on the right.This article illustrates both extremes. Hillary trotted onto the set of "The View" — where else? — on Wednesday's episode and promptly proceeded to participate in a hyperbolic Donald Trump hatefest to beat the band. And what round of histrionic spewing between Hillary and "the ladies" would be complete without once again comparing Trump to Adolf Hitler?

Reposting a comment from Cameron on X from November 4, White House Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates slammed Cameron for championing former President Donald Trump’s endorsement and ripping President Joe Biden’s so-called “Bidenomics.” “The closing message below – from a candidate who’s [sic] Twitter bio starts with ‘Trump-endorsed’ – crashed and burned,” he posted: ( X ) Other Democrats chimed in: ( X ) Cameron and Republican allies, including Trump, worked very hard in recent days to defeat Beshear by linking him to Biden.

President Joe Biden fundraised off the Democrat Party’s nearly flawless election day on Tuesday, using the victories in Ohio, Kentucky, and likely in Virginia to draw a contrast between “democracy” and “MAGA.” The Republican potential losses in all three states highlight the GOP’s seeming inability to persuade voters of their arguments against late-term abortions. In Ohio, the state passed an initiative to block bans on abortion by adding protections to the state constitution. In Virginia, Democrats appeared to retain power in the Senate. In Kentucky, incumbent Gov. Andy Beshear (D) trounced gubernatorial candidate Daniel Cameron (R). “Across the country tonight, democracy won and MAGA lost,” Joe Biden’s X account posted.

Top congressional Democrats are reportedly circulating a letter to President Joe Biden encouraging him to “designate the Palestinian territories for Temporary Protected Status,” thus allowing “foreign nationals” from those areas to stay in the U.S. The draft letter, obtained by The Daily Caller, is reportedly backed by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Reps. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) and Jan Schakowsky (D-IL). Reporter Henry Rodgers said that the push from congressional Democrats was a call to “open the flood gates for Palestinians to come into the U.S.”

According to the New York Post: While their people languish in poverty and are treated as human shields, the leaders of Hamas live billionaire lifestyles. The terror group’s three top leaders alone are worth a staggering $11 billion between them and enjoy a life of luxury in the sanctuary of the emirate of Qatar.

A suspected migrant smuggler and seven others are dead after a collision in rural Texas. The incident occurred on US Highway 57 near the farming community of Batesville, and left two innocent Americans dead, local authorities said. The early-morning crash happened some 50 miles from the border around 8am local time, and state officials later revealed the pair hailed from Georgia. Both were in the front seat of an SUV struck by the suspected smuggler's vehicle.That car, cops said, had been evading arrest from the Zavala County Sherriff's Office just before the crash - which happened as it attempted to pass an 18-wheeler in a no-passing zone.
