fckin Ohio

So Ohio has two shitty issues on the ballot this year.  The one that most people are aware of is Issue 2, a bill that would take away the option of public employees to unionize (well, they can unionize but they can't strike)  The AFL-CIO has done a pretty good job of making people aware of how truly awful that is.

The other piece of garbage on the ballot, that probably will pass is Issue 3, which is couched in terminology that makes it look as if it exists purely to insure that Ohioans have a choice in health insurance.  I wasn't aware of it until I went to vote today.  The practical effect is to make any sort of socialized medicine in Ohio impossible and screw people who are unable to afford good health insurance but don't qualify for Medicaid.

You know, I'm not even sure what races or issues are going on in MA.

I know that there are a couple of council seats up for vote- one in my new neighborhood, but I know nothing about them, and I think that I'm still registered to vote in Brookline, where I haven't lived in over 2 years.

There's nothing going on at the federal or state level in MA.  Just local elections and initiatives.
