Abortion rights amendment could motivate young Ohio voters this November

That's why, she says, she's glad Ohio's November ballot proposal to enshrine abortion rights in the state's constitution will be settled at the ballot box, not behind closed doors at the Statehouse.

"We are the ones that are experiencing what's going on. Not them," she adds, referring to state lawmakers. "They're behind the desk."

Interviews with six other UC students and faculty that afternoon indicated many on campus would agree.

"I definitely think that we should have that in the Constitution," said Milo Ginn, 21, a UC student who lives in Pleasant Ridge.

"I think that people should have the right to have an abortion," said Savanah Howard, 22. "I wouldn't personally get one, but that doesn't mean I don't think other people should be able to get one."

1. It is easy to say," I would not have one,"

When you have never been in the position of being raped as many young girls are. Or your Doctor tells you your baby is not viable or many other reasons but I verify that with it is not my decision and I refuse to deny others from the choice.

I-know we have birth control, even the morning after pill but again.

I can tell you young people in Ohio voted, even though LaRose and DeWine tried to slip it through with an August election. Something they said was a bad idea not long ago because they cost too much. They were slapped down by voters the same was Kasich was when he tried to kill Teachers,( public unions.) the people turned out in droves.

Also the red/ blue maps were much different on this election. Reds voted against the draconian bill, too.

2. Abortion proposal in Michigan

certainly motivated young voters here. Thanks to them the Dems won reelection for the Governor, AG & SOS. The Dems won control of the MI House, Senate and Supreme Court. Our strong women are doing great things here thanks to the young voters.
