Big news out of Ohio. Mobilizing young voters this year will pay off in spades in 2024, where the Senate majority hangs on Sherrod Brown's seat in the Buckeye State.

Don't forget to mobilize these voters to vote in the August 8th special election where Republicans put a change to up the requirement of constitutional ammendments to 60% from the current 50%. Otherwise the November abortion ammendment may fail!

@noah @georgetakei 60% is very doable for popular measures on ballots.

I wouldn't bet on it in Ohio. It also requires signatures from all 88 counties in Ohio, up from the current 44.

@noah @georgetakei Doable doesn't mean easy. The key word is popular. Pour enough money into the campaign for lots of positive advertising and a good ground game. It would have been better if they had waited until 2024, but nothing stops them from trying again next year.
