From Mother Jones:
On the eve of Ohio’s ballot referendum on Tuesday, a new poll by Public Policy Polling suggests GOP Gov. John Kasich’s anti-union law is set for a trouncing.
PPP found that 59 percent of voters supported repealing SB 5, as Kasich’s law is known, while only 36 percent wanted to uphold it. That’s bad news for Kasich allies, as it reinforces previous polls showing SB 5 heading for a resounding defeat. In fact, the 23-point gap in PPP’s latest survey is identical to the result of a March PPP poll. “Voters were furious then and that anger has continued all the way to November,” Tom Jensen, PPP’s director, said in a statement.
I would suggest that any Ohio voters not take this poll as a reason to believe they don’t have to bother showing up at the polls today. Majority of opinion is not the same as majority of votes. Show up.
