Why Did Ohio Sell Its Parks to Frackers While Ballots and Two House Races Hang in the Balance?
About this episode
The episode discusses Ohio's recent sale of public wildlife land to frackers amidst critical political events and voter registration issues.
Ohio sold fifteen thousand acres of public wildlife land to out of state frackers this week, days after officials killed a solar farm in Clark County. Meanwhile, over two thousand provisional ballots got thrown out in the May primary, and only 23 percent of Ohio's 18 year olds are registered to vote at all. The Supreme Court also handed down three rulings this week that land right back in Ohio, on mail ballots, birthright citizenship, and campaign finance. We close out with the two U.S. House races the whole country is watching this fall: Kaptur versus Merrin in the 9th District, and Turner versus Knickerbocker in the 10th.
