Amy Acton Backs Voter ID in Constitution | Cincinnati News

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton is making waves by backing Issue 3, a ballot measure that would enshrine Ohio’s existing voter photo ID law into the state constitution — a move that bucks her party’s usual stance. While current law already requires IDs like driver’s licenses or passports, Acton argues it builds public trust and reflects Ohioans’ desires, even though critics say it doesn’t change policy and may be a Republican tactic to boost turnout. Her support could deepen divisions within the Democratic Party as election day nears, while other candidates warn of unintended consequences from locking laws into the constitution.
