Ohio voters defeated a statewide measure to define Sunday as a mandatory day of rest. With about half the polling places reporting, 843,659 voted no and 630,395 yes. The proposed amendment would bar the legislature from blocking Sunday sales of 23 items including milk, food, drugs, news, gas, utilities, and medical supplies. Supporters said it would guide future blue laws, while opponents warned it could allow Sunday operations of many retailers.
