DeWine Vetoes Election and Rent Bills

Governor Mike DeWine just vetoed two major bills, calling one an unnecessary voter hurdle and the other insufficient protection for renters. He blocked a photo ID requirement for absentee ballots, arguing Ohio’s election system is already secure. He also rejected a bill that would have weakened oversight of submetering companies—renters’ electric providers often charging inflated rates—saying existing protections are stronger and the courts have already classified them as public utilities. These vetoes come ahead of the November election, revealing his priorities on voter access and tenant rights. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
