OhioIssue 1 dominates spending in election battle
Ohio voters face a polarized race over Issue 1 to repeal instant voter registration, with labor unions leading anti Issue 1 spending and corporations backing pro I1. Reports show AFL CIO and United Auto Workers contribute about 82 thousand dollars to the anti coalition while Goodyear and Firestone seed pro I1 with tens of thousands. Issue 2 trap ban and Issues 3 4 housing and bonds draw far less money with wildlife groups spending heavily to defeat the trap ban. Final totals due in December.

In Washington a coalition in the Senate seeks to derail a $49 billion eight year energy tax breaks package and send it back to Finance Committee.
