Ohio School Funding Constitutional Amendment

Editorials

 

Editorial pages from around the state have opined on the constitutional amendment. This page makes it easy to see where Ohio's newspapers stand on this issue. This page may look to the casual observer as somewhat biased because there are no editorials in favor of the amendment, however, the reason for this is simple. There are no editorials in favor of the amendment. If you find one, let me know and I'll add it.
