As you know, next week is a crucial vote on Referendum No. 2 in Ohio, which needs to pass in order to put the collective bargaining reform bill into effect.  Polling does not look good.  There also is another referendum on education reform.

We were supported today by The Ohio Project (health care Issue 3) and Americans For Prosperity (Issue 2) but there hasn’t been much else other than a few ads. Rumor is the Republican Party is taking a back seat.
