100-year precedent set in ohio. a simple majority rule. their efforts to try to raise the threshold to 60% for future elections as well as changing the requirements to get a citizen-led initiative on the ballot were really sinister and sadistic. when you think about the fact that currently right now we require 44 counties of the 88 to get signatures to get something on the ballot and they wanted to change it to 88. that means one single county could have held up an entire constitutional amendmen...

Of the people. issues are still important, and that messaging matters. >> what do you make of what mike just said? he says that he doesnt think that the timing here had an effect. the fact that it was a special election, happening in august, this was the only issue that voters were voting on and casting their ballots on tonight. do you think that is why this failed? >> i think it failed, or it is going to fail because people are paying attention. despite their suppressive efforts to try to hold ...

Our votes. you still think there is a chance? >> i do. 7,000 precincts, not in the nation but in the state of ohio and let the process play out and see where were at. at the end of the day weve been laser focused on november since january, this was step one in the process and well be ready to go come november. >> cnn knows obviously really accurate with these projections. we dont make these early. we make them when we have a good assessment of what the vote looks like on the ground. i meaning bu...

Dont think it would be called necessarily. are still here, but the no side is winning, of course at the end of the day we still want to count all of our votes. >> you still think that there is a chance? >> i do, i think 7000 precincts. its not in the nation, but in the state of ohio. so there is still time. were going to let the process play out and see where we are at but at the end of the day we have been focused on november since january, this is just up one in the process, and we will be rea...

Eventually apologised for sharing memes suggesting that she had been lying, saying that he changed his mind after hearing the evidence in the case. �* ., , ~ case. peter bowes there in la for us. great _ case. peter bowes there in la for us. great to _ case. peter bowes there in la for us. great to talk _ case. peter bowes there in la for us. great to talk to - case. peter bowes there in la for us. great to talk to you. i for us. great to talk to you. thanks for that. here in the us, multiple ...

This campaign. there is no doubt, but when you talk to many republicans, we encountered as weve been covering this the last month weve enkong tered many republicans opposed to abortion right, but they do not believe that the summertime special election was the way to change the state constitution. two former republican governors, bob taft and john kasich have been campaigning across the state saying that the state constitution should not be changed in this way, the threshold should not be raised...

Continued throughout election day, so even as the numbers continue to come in from across the state we can now project that the vote no wins. you can hear the applause behind me here. what this really is, kaitlin, is the beginning of the process. this is the beginning of a major campaign over abortion rights, and one of americas classic battleground states, ohio, of course, has been trending red in recent presidential elections, but, abortion will be on the ballot in november and the threshold t...

Republicans theyre still getting bogged down at 15 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks? what are the exceptions? federal, state? and theres no coherent answer. the second thing is that the patterns of who turns out in very low turnout elections have changed. the democratic coalition has really been fired up by this issue and they are turning out in elections that previously was much harder for the democratic party to turn people out in. meanwhile, republicans, their coalition now consists of a lot more vote...

Decided to have in august? even though that republican super majority had just voted to eliminate august special elections, or do you think that it is a sense, from what you have heard on the ground, about an energy there. behind what voters believe on abortion rights. >> it was definitely a mix. abortion rights was a driver of this campaign, there is no doubt, but when you talk to many republicans they encountered. as weve been saying over the last month. weve encountered many republicans who a...
