Voters in Ohio Tuesday strongly rejected a measure that would have made it more difficult to amend the state’s Constitution.
Many Christians and people who don’t believe in abortion didn’t show up to vote, but the evil left did.
Qui Tacet Consentire Videtur. This Latin maxim means, “He who remains silent is understood to consent.”
“Consent” = “agreement to do something or permission for something to happen.”

Supporters of liberalized abortion laws celebrated, while one pro-life group called it
“A SAD DAY FOR OHIO.”
Issue 1 is a ballot measure that would have made it harder to approve any amendment to the Buckeye State’s Constitution by raising the current requirement from a simple majority of voters to 60% of ballots cast.
Opponents of Issue 1 charged the special election was aimed at a November referendum on a constitutional amendment that would guarantee abortion access in Ohio.
Abortion is a fight as Ohio and all other U.S. states have been given control of their own abortion policies following the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade last summer.
Ohio’s ban on most abortions had been placed on hold under Roe and then allowed to take effect briefly after the court overturned it. Since then, it has been frozen again while a challenge alleging it violates the Ohio Constitution plays out in the judicial system.
The campaign favoring Issue 1, Protect Our Constitution, has told voters that raising the threshold will keep deep-pocketed interest groups from pushing Ohio redistricting, gun control, and minimum wage policies.
According to The Columbus Dispatch, it has spent $2.5 million on advertising. One Person One Vote, the opposition campaign, argues that raising the threshold for passing future amendments would prioritize the interests of Ohio’s increasingly conservative GOP supermajority at the statehouse over those of everyday voters.
The Dispatch reported spending roughly $12.4 million on TV, cable, and radio advertising.
The pro-life group Protects Women Ohio, the campaign against the fall abortion question that will appear on the state’s ballot in November, has spent roughly $7.1 million in advertising to support Issue 1, according to the outlet.
The proposed abortion amendment that will be voted on in November reads:
“Every individual has a right to make and carry out one’s own reproductive decisions, including but not limited to decisions on contraception, fertility treatment, continuing one’s own pregnancy, miscarriage care, and abortion.”
“The State shall not directly or indirectly burden, penalize, prohibit, interfere with, or discriminate against either an individual’s voluntary exercise of this right or a person or entity that assists an individual exercising this right, unless the State demonstrates that it is using the least restrictive means to advance the individual’s health in accordance with widely accepted and evidence-based standards of care.”
“The American Civil Liberties Union and Planned Parenthood back the November pro-abortion amendment.
On the pro-life side, the executive director for Greater Columbus Right to Life “This amendment is anti-parent, anti-life, and far too extreme.”
Tuesday’s vote on State Issue 1 needed a simple majority to pass and would have taken effect immediately. But it failed to pass, so the November ballot measure aimed at abortion access in the Ohio Constitution will only need a basic majority to change the state constitution.
Anyone having an abortion or participating in an abortion, or siding with abortion will have to answer to God on Judgement Day.
