>> AS OHIO'S PRESIDENTIAL |
| 00:00:44 | PRIMARY MOVES CLOSER, POLITICS
HEATS UP. |
| 00:00:50 | 1 OF THE STATE'S TOP DEMOCRATS
IS WORKING WITH THE GOVERNOR ON |
| 00:00:58 | 1 ISSUE AS SHE FIGHTS
REPUBLICANS ON ANOTHER. |
| 00:01:01 | RICK SANTORUM IS IN OHIO AND
NEWT GINGRICH TOWARD SEVERAL |
| 00:01:28 | OHIO CITIES LAST WEEK.
THERE IS NO WORD ON WHEN OR IF |
| 00:01:31 | RON PAUL WILL BE HERE BEFORE THE
PRIMARY. |
| 00:01:33 | OHIO IS ONE OF THE STATES IN
THE SUPER TUESDAY PRIMARY MAKES |
| 00:01:39 | ON MARCH 6.
THERE IS A NEW LEADER IN THE GOP |
| 00:01:43 | PRESIDENTIAL RACE IN OHIO.
IT IS RICK SANTORUM. |
| 00:01:45 | NEWT GINGRICH IS THAT 20% AND
RON PAUL IS AT 9%. |
| 00:01:52 | HALF OF THOSE RESPONDING TO THE
POLL SAY THEY MAY CHANGE THEIR |
| 00:01:59 | MIND BEFORE MARCH 6.
THE FIRST SURVEY CANNOT BE |
| 00:02:03 | COMPARED TO EARLIER SURVEYS OF
REGISTERED REPUBLICANS SINCE |
| 00:02:07 | THIS POLL INCLUDES ONLY LIKELY
VOTERS. |
| 00:02:09 | ROMNEY WAS LEADING IN A POLL OF
REGISTERED REPUBLICANS LAST |
| 00:02:15 | MONTH.
HERMAN CAIN WAS LEADING BEFORE |
| 00:02:17 | THAT IN OCTOBER.
AND ROMNEY WAS TIED WITH RICK |
| 00:02:22 | PERRY IN SEPTEMBER.
THE POLL ALSO SHOWS PRESIDENT |
| 00:02:26 | OBAMA BEATS IN THE REPUBLICAN
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES. |
| 00:02:29 | THE PRESENT WINS OVER ROMNEY BY
10 PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA -- 10 |
| 00:02:36 | POINTS.
ANOTHER POLL THIS WEEK HELD SOME |
| 00:02:42 | BAD NEWS FOR UNION ACTIVIST.
IT WOULD STATE THAT WORKERS DO |
| 00:02:48 | NOT HAVE TO PAY UNION DUES TO
GET OR KEEP A JOB. |
| 00:02:52 | THE POLL FINDS THE AMENDMENT
WOULD PASS 54% TO 44%. |
| 00:02:59 | INDEPENDENT VOTERS ARE MOSTLY
SUPPORTIVE. |
| 00:03:03 | THE POLL ALSO SHOWED SUPPORT FOR
A LAW THAT BANS SMOKING IN THE |
| 00:03:07 | CARS IF A CHILD UNDER 6 IS IN
ONE. |
| 00:03:11 | JUST OVER HALF APPROVE OF
RAISING THE SPEED LIMIT ON THE |
| 00:03:16 | INTERSTATE.
17% WANT A HIGHER SPEED LIMIT ON |
| 00:03:20 | THAT BILL.
NEARLY HALF OF RESPONDENTS |
| 00:03:23 | OPPOSED THE CREATION OF A SCHOOL
CALENDAR THAT WOULD RUN FROM |
| 00:03:27 | LABOR DAY TO MEMORIAL DAY.
GOVERNOR JOHN KASICH JOB |
| 00:03:31 | APPROVAL NUMBERS ARE STILL POOR.
40% OF REGISTERED VOTERS SAY |
| 00:03:37 | THEY APPROVE OF THE JOB HE IS
DOING. |
| 00:03:38 | 46% DISAPPROVE.
THIS IS THE SAME AS HIS RATING |
| 00:03:47 | IN THE A POLL LAST MONTH.
WE HAVE A GRAND OPENING DATES |
| 00:03:51 | FOR THE FIRST TWO CASINOS.
THE CLEVELAND HORSE SHOE CASINO |
| 00:03:59 | CAN OPEN THE WEEK OF MAY 14.
THE HOLLYWOOD CASINO TOLEDO CAN |
| 00:04:06 | OPEN TWO WEEKS LATER, ANYTIME
AFTER MEMORIAL DAY. |
| 00:04:09 | IT DISTILLS HOPE TO BE OPEN IN
LATE MARCH AND EARLY APRIL. |
| 00:04:14 | -- THE CASINOS HOPED TO BE OPEN
IN LATE MARCH OR EARLY APRIL. |
| 00:04:19 | THE HOLLYWOOD CASINO COLUMBUS IS
SET TO OPEN AROUND THANKSGIVING. |
| 00:04:24 | THE CINCINNATI CASINO WILL OPEN
SOMETIME IN 2013. |
| 00:04:29 | THE STATE HAS A NEW AGRICULTURE
DIRECTOR, REPUBLICAN DAVID |
| 00:04:35 | DANIELS.
HE RESIGNED HIS SENATE SEAT TO |
| 00:04:37 | TAKE OVER THE POSITION LEFT
VACANT WHEN GOVERNOR CASE IT |
| 00:04:40 | MOVES THE FORMER DIRECTOR INTO
THE TOP SPOT AT THE DEPARTMENT |
| 00:04:44 | OF NATURAL RESOURCES.
IS IT -- IS EXPECTED THAT |
| 00:04:49 | DANIELS WILL WORK ON AN EXOTIC
ANIMAL MAN AND WILL ADVISE THE |
| 00:04:54 | GOVERNOR IN DEVELOPING THE OHIO
-- ANIMAL BAN AND WILL ADVISE |
| 00:05:00 | THE GOVERNOR IN DEVELOPING THE
OHIO OUR OIL INDUSTRY. |
| 00:05:02 | WE ARE STILL DIGESTING GOVERNOR
CASEY'S STATE OF THE STATE |
| 00:05:09 | SPEECH.
-- GOVERNOR CAKASIC'S STATE OF E |
| 00:05:16 | STATE -- KASICH'S STATE OF THE
STATE SPEECH. |
| 00:05:24 | >> THIS REALLY MEANS SOMETHING.
>> THAT MAY NOT MEAN MUCH, BUT |
| 00:05:32 | IT HAS BEEN RECEIVED NATIONALLY
AS A PROPOSAL WITH LOTS OF |
| 00:05:35 | POTENTIAL AND VERY LITTLE
DOWNSIDE. |
| 00:05:40 | IT IS THE MOST EXCITING THINGS
THAT HAD -- THING THAT HAS |
| 00:05:45 | HAPPENED TO THE OHIO INTERNET
CONFERENCE. |
| 00:05:52 | >> WE ARE TAKING THE CURRENT
INFRASTRUCTURE -- WE ALREADY |
| 00:06:01 | HAVE A LONG-TERM LEASE -- WE ARE
INCREASING IT. |
| 00:06:05 | I HAVE USED A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT
EXAMPLES. |
| 00:06:10 | IF YOU THINK OF THE CORE DOORI-
71. |
| 00:06:14 | -- TOOK I-71, THAT IS THE
CAPACITY WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. |
| 00:06:24 | WE ARE LOOKING AT THE CAPACITY
OF WHAT WE HAVE EXPANDED TOO. |
| 00:06:28 | >> THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR SAYS
THIS IS AS A HISTORIC AS THE |
| 00:06:37 | DISCUSSION OF A 1 GIG NETWORK.
>> THIS IS THE SAME MOMENT WE |
| 00:06:46 | HAD IN 2000.
THESE CARS ARE BEING |
| 00:06:52 | MANUFACTURED AS WE SPEAK.
WE ARE THE PIONEERS OF MAKING |
| 00:06:56 | TECHNOLOGY COME TO OUR CAMPUSES.
THIS IS SETTING US 10 YEARS |
| 00:07:02 | AHEAD INSTEAD OF ASKING WHY NOW.
WE CAN PUT IT IN OUR LABS AND |
| 00:07:10 | PUT IT IN PRODUCTION AND WORK TO
CREATE SOMETHING BIGGER AND |
| 00:07:13 | BETTER.
>> THE STATE AND ITS PRIVATE |
| 00:07:17 | PARTNERS WILL INVEST $10
BILLION. |
| 00:07:20 | THE LINE TO CONNECT 90 OF OHIO'S
PUBLIC AND PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES |
| 00:07:27 | AND ALL PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN OHIO
AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS WILL GO |
| 00:07:30 | FROM CRUISING SPEEDS INTO HIGH
PER DRIVE. |
| 00:07:32 | >> IF YOU TAKE THOSE IMAGES, YOU
CAN TRANSMIT THOSE |
| 00:07:39 | SIMULTANEOUSLY.
IT IS 50,000 TIMES FASTER THAN |
| 00:07:44 | THE SMARTPHONES WE USE.
I KEEP COMING BACK TO PUT THIS |
| 00:07:49 | IN LAYMEN'S TERMS.
YOU CHANGE OUT THE ENGINES AND |
| 00:07:53 | PUT IN ITS 100 GALLONS A BOX.
IT IS TRULY INCREDIBLE. |
| 00:07:58 | >> HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE TO
DOWNLOAD A MOVIE OR A BOOK? |
| 00:08:03 | >> I WOULD NOT HAVE THE EXACT
-- IT WOULD BE MILLISECONDS. |
| 00:08:09 | >> CONSIDER THE MEDICAL
INDUSTRY. |
| 00:08:14 | >> THINK ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION
OF DATA. |
| 00:08:18 | WHAT THEY ARE DOING NOW BECAUSE
THESE DATA BITS ARE SO BIG, THEY |
| 00:08:25 | ARE SAVING EXTERNAL HARD DRIVES
AND SHIPPING IT TO WHEREVER |
| 00:08:29 | THERE COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS ARE
WORKING WITH PRIVATE INDUSTRY, |
| 00:08:32 | PHARMA, OR WHATEVER THEY ARE
TESTING WITH. |
| 00:08:38 | THIS WILL ENABLE THEM TO
TRANSMIT INFORMATION MUCH MORE |
| 00:08:46 | QUICKLY.
>> IMAGES AND SIMULATIONS CAN BE |
| 00:08:51 | MOVED BACK AND FORTH QUICKLY AND
EASILY. |
| 00:08:53 | IT WILL HELP SCIENTIFIC AND
MEDICAL RESEARCHERS SHARE |
| 00:08:59 | MATERIAL AND COMPLEX IMAGES.
THE NETWORK OFFERS THE |
| 00:09:02 | POSSIBILITY OF ALLOWING DOCTORS
TO PRACTICE PROCEDURES AND |
| 00:09:05 | SURGERY ON VIRTUAL PATIENTS IN
3-D, WHICH IS ESSENTIAL FOR |
| 00:09:10 | PHYSICIANS WORKING IN THE AREA
WHERE THEY HAVE NO ACCESS TO |
| 00:09:14 | CADAVERS.
NO OTHER STATE HAS NETWORKS THAT |
| 00:09:16 | REACH AS FAR AS ORNET OR THAT
APPROACH THE SPEED IT WELL. |
| 00:09:22 | >> INDIANA ANNOUNCED TODAY AND I
HAVE BEFORE US THAT THEY WILL |
| 00:09:28 | IGNITE A SINGLE STRAND OF 100
GIG FIBER FROM INDIANA |
| 00:09:35 | UNIVERSITY ALL THE WAY TO
CHICAGO. |
| 00:09:37 | CALIFORNIA CAME OUT TRYING TO
BEAT US TO THE PUNCH. |
| 00:09:41 | THEY ARE LIKE IN 12.
-- IGNITING ONE, TOO. |
| 00:09:47 | WE ARE EXPANDING IT TO ALL OUR
FOOTPRINT IN OHIO. |
| 00:09:53 | THIS IS GAME CHANGING STUFF.
IN THE PRESS RELEASES WE HAVE |
| 00:09:57 | RELEASED, THIS IS IMPORTANT.
WE ARE GOING TO TOUCH CLEVELAND, |
| 00:10:02 | COLUMBUS, CINCINNATI, DAYTON.
THEN WE WILL GO TO AKRON AND |
| 00:10:07 | YOUNGSTOWN.
WE ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO TOUCH |
| 00:10:11 | PEOPLE IN SOME OF THE OTHER
PARTS OF THE STATE THAT ARE NOT |
| 00:10:14 | NORMALLY BEEN TOUCHED.
>> MOST OF THE TALK IS HOW IT |
| 00:10:18 | WILL HELP EDUCATIONAL
INSTITUTIONS. |
| 00:10:20 | INTERNET GIANTS LIKE GOOGLE AND
FACEBOOK STARTED AROUND COLLEGES |
| 00:10:26 | BECAUSE OF THEIR ACCESS TO HIGH-
SPEED DATA NETWORKS. |
| 00:10:29 | CONNOLLY SAYS THE STATE CAN USE
ORNET AS A HOOK TO LURE IN |
| 00:10:40 | PRIVATE BUSINESSES THAT NEED
LARGE AMOUNTS OF DATA AS WELL. |
| 00:10:42 | >> IT IS NOT JUST A SINGLE
STRAND. |
| 00:10:46 | WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE ENTIRE
FOOTPRINT OF MOST OF THE URBAN |
| 00:10:51 | AREAS OF OHIO.
>> SHAW IS EVEN MORE OPTIMISTIC |
| 00:10:56 | ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF OHIO
BECOMING A HIGH-TECH POWERHOUSE |
| 00:11:02 | AT THE NATIONAL OR INTERNATIONAL
LEVEL. |
| 00:11:03 | >> WE WENT TO THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE. |
| 00:11:10 | IT WAS CLEAR THAT GOOGLE,
FACEBOOK, CISCO HAVE ALL COME |
| 00:11:17 | FROM AND UNIVERSITIES.
THEY HAVE SPREAD TO SUCH |
| 00:11:23 | TECHNOLOGY.
WHAT WE ARE DOING IS CREATING AN |
| 00:11:27 | INFRASTRUCTURE.
THE QUESTION ABOUT, CAN I MOVE |
| 00:11:30 | AND APPLICATION ABOUT --
APPLICATION FROM HERE TO HERE IS |
| 00:11:36 | TAKEN OFF OF THE TABLE.
WE HOPE TO CREATE AN INNOVATION |
| 00:11:42 | CENTER HERE SHORTLY.
WE ARE HOPING TO HAVE PUBLIC AND |
| 00:11:45 | PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS THAT WILL
BRING THE RESEARCHERS. |
| 00:11:48 | WE ARE TALKING ABOUT MAKING A
BRIDGE WITH THE PRIVATE SECTOR |
| 00:11:53 | AND ALSO LOOKING AT
COMMERCIALIZATION. |
| 00:11:54 | WE HOPE WE WILL BE THE SILICON
VALLEY OF THE MIDWEST. |
| 00:11:58 | >> THE FIRST PHASE COULD BE UP
AND RUNNING IN JUNE. |
| 00:12:05 | THE SECOND PHASE WILL BE READY
BY OCTOBER. |
| 00:12:10 | ALSO IN THE GOVERNOR JOHN
KASICH'S STAKE IN THE STATE |
| 00:12:14 | SPEECH WERE SEVERAL SHOUT OUT.
IT WAS A SURPRISE TO SOME PEOPLE |
| 00:12:18 | IN THE ROOM IN STEUBENVILLE.
>> BESHEAR? |
| 00:12:23 | -- IS SHE HERE?
WAVE, JENNIFER. |
| 00:12:31 | >> HE HAS ASKED THE FORMER
SECRETARY OF STATE TO WORK WITH |
| 00:12:38 | HIS ADMINISTRATION ON THE ISSUE
OF COLLATERAL SANCTIONS, |
| 00:12:42 | RESTRICTIONS PLACED ON PEOPLE
WHO HAVE DONE TIME IN PRISON. |
| 00:12:45 | THEY RANGE FROM LOSS OF VOTING
RIGHTS TO ELIGIBILITY FOR |
| 00:12:49 | HOLDING CERTAIN JOBS.
THESE DISQUALIFICATIONS ARE |
| 00:12:53 | COSTING MANY EX-OFFENDERS A
SECOND CHANCE. |
| 00:12:55 | SHE IS ALSO WORKING ON ANOTHER
ISSUE, THE BALLOT ISSUE FOR |
| 00:13:02 | ELECTION REFORM THAT WAS PASSED
BY THE REPUBLICAN DOMINATED |
| 00:13:06 | LEGISLATURE LAST YEAR.
IT SHORTENS THE EARLY VOTING |
| 00:13:09 | PERIOD TO 17 DAYS FOR AND PERSON
VOTING. |
| 00:13:16 | IT PROHIBITS BOARD OF ELECTIONS
FROM SENDING OUT UNSOLICITED |
| 00:13:25 | ABSENTEE BALLOTS APPLICATIONS.
IT PERMITS IN PERSON ABSENTEE |
| 00:13:38 | VOTING AT THE MAIN BOARD OF
ELECTIONS ONLY. |
| 00:13:41 | THEY ARE QUESTIONING WHETHER OR
NOT TO REPEAL THE LAW. |
| 00:13:45 | THEY ARE CONCERNED WHETHER A
REPEAL OF THAT LAW IS |
| 00:13:49 | CONSTITUTIONAL.
FAIR ELECTIONS OHIO IS WORRIED |
| 00:13:54 | ABOUT WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN AFTER
THE REPEAL IF LAWMAKERS TOLD THE |
| 00:14:00 | LAW THEMSELVES.
THEY TALKED ABOUT BOTH OF THESE |
| 00:14:03 | ISSUES.
THE GOVERNOR HAS ASKED YOU TO |
| 00:14:07 | TALK ABOUT COLLATERAL SANCTIONS.
I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT FIRST. |
| 00:14:10 | I URGE THE GOVERNMENT TALK ABOUT
PEOPLE WHO CANNOT HAVE |
| 00:14:14 | COMMERCIAL DRIVER'S LICENSES
BECAUSE THEY HAVE DONE TIME IN |
| 00:14:17 | PRISON.
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE OTHER |
| 00:14:20 | DISQUALIFICATIONS THAT PEOPLE
WHO ARE EXT. OFFENDERS ARE |
| 00:14:23 | DEALING WITH IN OHIO?
-- EX OFFENDERS ARE DEALING |
| 00:14:31 | WITH IN OHIO.
>> THEY CANNOT GET A LICENSE TO |
| 00:14:35 | CUT HERE.
IN MY YEARS AS A JUDGE, IF |
| 00:14:40 | SOMEONE WAS SENTENCED FOR FELONY
NON-SUPPORT OF THEIR CHILDREN, |
| 00:14:44 | THE LAW REQUIRED WE HAD TO TAKE
AWAY THEIR DRIVER'S LICENSE. |
| 00:14:47 | HOW CAN YOU GET A JOB OR GO TO A
JOB IF YOU DO NOT HAVE |
| 00:14:51 | TRANSPORTATION TO GET THEIR?
THEY WILL SUSPEND THE -- TOO |
| 00:15:00 | GET THERE?
THERE ARE OVER 3000 COLLATERAL |
| 00:15:07 | SANCTIONS.
IT IS NOT TO SAY ALL OF THEM |
| 00:15:09 | WOULD BE REMOVED, BUT THE -- BUT
LESS USE SOME COMMON SENSE. |
| 00:15:13 | >> WOULD IT GO AGAINST WHAT
LAWMAKERS HAVE BEEN DOING FOR |
| 00:15:18 | YEARS IN TERMS OF RESTRICTING
THE ACCESS THAT EX-OFFENDERS |
| 00:15:22 | MIGHT HAVE TO VULNERABLE
POPULATIONS OF KIDS AND MONEY |
| 00:15:27 | AND BUSINESSES AND THAT SORT OF
THINGS? |
| 00:15:29 | >> IT HAS BEEN A HODGEPODGE
PATCHWORK OF LAWS THAT ARE BASED |
| 00:15:34 | ON LAWMAKERS WANTING TO LOOK
TOUGH ON CRIME. |
| 00:15:38 | THEY CAN SAY WHEN IT IS TIME FOR
THEM TO RUN FOR REELECTION, I |
| 00:15:44 | DID THIS.
THEY ARE NOT THINKING ABOUT ALL |
| 00:15:46 | OF THE COLLATERAL CONSEQUENCES
TO EVERYDAY PEOPLE IN OHIO. |
| 00:15:49 | THE GOVERNOR WAS GREAT.
HE CAME TO THIS MEETING WITH 65 |
| 00:15:54 | PEOPLE.
IT IS NOT OFTEN YOU WILL GET THE |
| 00:16:00 | GOVERNOR TO COME AND SPEAK TO A
GROUP LIKE THAT. |
| 00:16:02 | HE DELAYS THIS IS IMPORTANT.
HE SAID, WE ARE GOING -- HE |
| 00:16:09 | BELIEVES THIS IS IMPORTANT.
WE DIVIDED INTO GROUPS AND WE |
| 00:16:13 | BRAINSTORM AND CAME UP WITH
IDEAS, ANYTHING FROM BEING ABLE |
| 00:16:17 | TO MAKE PAYMENTS ON YOUR
REINSTATEMENT FOR YOUR DRIVER'S |
| 00:16:19 | LICENSE.
THERE ARE OVER AS $40 MILLION |
| 00:16:25 | COLLECTED BY THE STATE JUST OR
DRIVER'S LICENSE REINSTATEMENT. |
| 00:16:30 | THE MAJORITY OF THAT IS ON
PEOPLE OF WORKING CLASS OR LOW |
| 00:16:34 | INCOME.
THAT IS NOT THE WAY IT IS |
| 00:16:36 | SUPPOSED TO WORK.
>> THIS IS AN ISSUE TALKED ABOUT |
| 00:16:41 | ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE LIKE
SENSES AND REFORM. |
| 00:16:44 | -- LIKE SENTENCING REFORM.
BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. |
| 00:16:48 | >> WE ARE BRINGING IN FOLKS FROM
BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE AND THE |
| 00:16:54 | DIFFERENT AREAS THAT TOUCHED
THIS ISSUE AND SAYING, HOW DOES |
| 00:16:57 | IT WORK FOR YOU?
WE HAVE PEOPLE IN CLEVELAND AND |
| 00:17:03 | THE HEAD OF THE BLACK CAUCUS TO
MYSELF AND THE HEAD OF THE |
| 00:17:06 | FRANKLIN COUNTY PROBATION
DEPARTMENT. |
| 00:17:08 | IT WAS A GREAT GROUP OF PEOPLE
AND THEY HAD A LOT OF WORTHWHILE |
| 00:17:12 | IDEAS.
>> IS IT A BALANCING ACT OF |
| 00:17:16 | BEING TOUGH ON CRIME AND MAKING
SURE PEOPLE WHO DID WRONG ARE |
| 00:17:20 | PUNISHED APPROPRIATELY AND
GIVING THEM A CHANCE TO GO OUT |
| 00:17:22 | AND EARN A LIVING AND HAVE A
JOB? |
| 00:17:24 | >> WHEN I GO BACK TO THE
PURPOSE AND PRINCIPLES OF |
| 00:17:29 | SENTENCING, IT IS TO PUNISH
OFFENDERS AND PROTECT THE |
| 00:17:33 | PUBLIC.
THERE IS A FINE BALANCE. |
| 00:17:35 | THERE MAY BE SOME WAYS YOU ARE
PUNISHING OFFENDERS WHERE YOU |
| 00:17:40 | ARE CAUSING MORE HARM TO THE
PUBLIC. |
| 00:17:42 | WHAT AMOUNT OF PUNISHMENT IS
SUFFICIENT AND WHAT DO WE NEED |
| 00:17:45 | TO DO TO REHABILITATE SO WE HAVE
SOMETHING INTO GETTING TO THE |
| 00:17:49 | PUBLIC IN BRINGING OTHERS ALONG
WITH THEM? |
| 00:17:51 | >> YOU ARE WORKING WITH THEIR
ELECTIONS OHIO, WHICH PUT THE |
| 00:17:56 | BALLOT INITIATIVE ON THE
BALLOTS. |
| 00:17:59 | YOU HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE
POTENTIAL REPEAL OF HOUSE RULE |
| 00:18:03 | 194.
YOU ARE CONCERNED THEY MIGHT |
| 00:18:05 | REPLACE IT WITH SOMETHING ELSE.
>> THEY CANNOT RESTRAIN |
| 00:18:10 | THEMSELVES FROM WANTING TO
TINKER WITH THE ELECTION LAWS. |
| 00:18:13 | THAT IS SOMETHING THAT CAN
HAPPEN TO MY SUCCESSOR AND TO |
| 00:18:19 | ELECTION OFFICIALS.
ANYTIME YOU MAKE A FUNDAMENTAL |
| 00:18:21 | CHANGE -- TODAY IS FEBRUARY 14
WHEN WE ARE RECORDING THIS. |
| 00:18:26 | TODAY WOULD BE THE FIRST DAY OF
ABSENTEE VOTING. |
| 00:18:30 | BECAUSE WE WERE ABLE TO STOP
THAT FROM BECOMING LAW, PEOPLE |
| 00:18:34 | WERE ABLE TO VOTE TWO WEEKS
PRIOR TO TODAY. |
| 00:18:38 | WE ARE CONCERNED THAT IT WILL
NOT JUST BE A REPEAL. |
| 00:18:42 | IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT, THE RIGHT
OF REFERENDUM IS ONE OF THE FEW |
| 00:18:48 | POWERS THE PEOPLE DESERVE TO
THEMSELVES. |
| 00:18:50 | THEY SAY, LEGISLATURES CAN DO
THIS. |
| 00:18:54 | THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH CAN DO
THIS. |
| 00:18:56 | WE WANT TO RESERVE THE POWERS
FOR OURSELVES TO AMEND OUR |
| 00:19:01 | CONSTITUTION AND SHOOT DOWN THE
LAWS WE DO NOT LIKE. |
| 00:19:02 | AND TO OFFER YOU LAWS WE DO LIKE
AND SAY, WE WOULD LIKE YOU TO |
| 00:19:09 | PASS THIS.
IF THEY WERE TO REPEAL IT AND |
| 00:19:12 | REENACT ANY PORTION OF HOUSE
BILL 194, IT IS A SLIGHT OF HAND |
| 00:19:17 | TO TAKE AWAY FROM THE PEOPLE THE
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT THEY HAVE TO |
| 00:19:20 | SAY, THIS IS HOW WE WANT OUR
GOVERNMENT TO BE. |
| 00:19:23 | >> YOU THINK IT IS
UNCONSTITUTIONAL TO DO A REPEAL |
| 00:19:28 | AND REPLACE.
>> THEY MAY BE WELL-INTENTIONED. |
| 00:19:32 | THE ELECTION OFFICIALS MAY SAY,
THIS IS MAKING IT EASIER FOR US. |
| 00:19:37 | PEOPLE CAN TOGETHER AND SAID, WE
WANT TO VOTE ON THIS. |
| 00:19:41 | THE SPEAKER SAID HE IS NOT EVEN
SURE THEY CAN CONSTITUTIONALLY |
| 00:19:47 | REPEALS SOMETHING THAT IS
CERTIFIED PER THE BALLOT. |
| 00:19:49 | I AM GLAD HE IS TAKING THAT
STANCE. |
| 00:19:52 | >> I AM WORRIED ABOUT DEMOCRATS.
AT THE SAME TIME LAST YEAR, |
| 00:19:58 | THERE WAS A DRIVE TO PUT THE
CONGRESSIONAL MAP BEFORE VOTERS. |
| 00:20:01 | THAT DRIVE ENDED UP WITH A DEAL
IN THE LEGISLATURE THAT CHANGED |
| 00:20:07 | THE MAP A LITTLE BIT AND MERGED
THE TWO PRIMARIES. |
| 00:20:09 | I WONDER IF DEMOCRATS ARE
THINKING, IF THEY HAD KNOWN ALL |
| 00:20:13 | ALONG THE LEGISLATURE WOULD
REPEAL THIS ELECTION REFORM |
| 00:20:18 | PACKAGE, THEY SHOULD HAVE PUSHED
HARDER FOR THE MAP. |
| 00:20:21 | DO YOU FEEL LIKE IT IS YOUR
REFERENDUM THAT IS PUSHING THE |
| 00:20:26 | POTENTIAL REPEAL?
>> I BELIEVE IS OUR REFERENDUM |
| 00:20:30 | PUSHING PEOPLE TO REPEAL.
JUST THE QUESTION YOU GET IN |
| 00:20:35 | THE INTRODUCTION ABOUT A POLL
WORKER NOT HAVING TO TELL YOU |
| 00:20:38 | ARE IN THE WRONG PRECINCT, THAT
IS LUDICROUS. |
| 00:20:42 | IT IS COMMON SENSE.
I HAVE WATCHED THE REACTION OF |
| 00:20:46 | AUDIENCES WHEN THIS BILL IS
EXPLAINED. |
| 00:20:48 | THEY LOOK AT EACH OTHER AND SAY,
WHAT? |
| 00:20:51 | >> THEY HAVE TO, UNDER THIS LAW.
>> THAT IS NOT DEMOCRATIC OR |
| 00:21:00 | REPUBLICAN OR ANYTHING.
IT IS NOT SYMBOLIZE. |
| 00:21:03 | PEOPLE ARE REALLY TIRED OF THAT.
WE DO NOT THINK THERE WILL BE |
| 00:21:08 | ANY PROBLEMS WHICH THE PUBLIC
SAYING, THIS IS NOT BE LOST OR |
| 00:21:11 | US.
DO NOT TAKE AWAY OUR VOTING |
| 00:21:14 | RIGHTS.
TO NOT MAKE IT HARDER FOR US TO |
| 00:21:16 | VOTE.
WE WANT PEOPLE TO PARTICIPATE. |
| 00:21:18 | >> ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT THE
POSSIBILITY OF PHOTO ID? |
| 00:21:25 | IT COULD BE A SEPARATE BILL
LATER ON. |
| 00:21:26 | >> HOUSE BILL 194 SAYS THAT
PEOPLE'S RISE ON IDENTIFICATION |
| 00:21:36 | ARE DIMINISHED.
-- RIGHTS ARE DIMINISHED. |
| 00:21:41 | THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN GET A
BALLOT IS TO GIVE THE LAST FOUR |
| 00:21:46 | DATE IS OF YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY
NUMBER. |
| 00:21:47 | WHAT DID YOU FORGET -- LAST 4
DIGITS OF YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY |
| 00:21:56 | NUMBER.
WHAT IF YOU FORGET? |
| 00:21:59 | WHEN YOU LAY THAT OUT TO PEOPLE,
THEY SAY THIS IS CRAZY. |
| 00:22:02 | THIS IS NOT THE OHIO WE KNOW.
>> ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT A |
| 00:22:08 | POTENTIAL PHOTO ID BILL WHERE
YOU WOULD HAVE TO PRESENT A |
| 00:22:11 | PHOTO ID?
>> THERE ELECTIONS OHIO WOULD BE |
| 00:22:16 | PREPARED TO SUBMIT THAT TO AN
VOTE -- A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE. |
| 00:22:20 | IT IS GOING TO BANG FAR.
PEOPLE JUST NEED TO COME |
| 00:22:24 | TOGETHER -- TOO FAR.
PEOPLE NEED TO COME TOGETHER AND |
| 00:22:30 | DO WHAT WE BELIEVE IS THERE.
THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME COMMON |
| 00:22:33 | GROUND.
>> IF THE LEGISLATURE GOES AHEAD |
| 00:22:38 | AND DOES THIS, IS THERE ANYTHING
YOU CAN DO? |
| 00:22:40 | CAN YOU SUE?
>> IS THERE IS ANOTHER BILL THAT |
| 00:22:44 | THEY WILL BE OFFERING TO CHANGE
THE ELECTION LAWS, WE WILL |
| 00:22:47 | SUBMIT THAT TO REFERENDUM.
WE ARE CONVINCED THAT THEY WILL |
| 00:22:51 | NOT BE ABLE TO LEAVE OUT PART OF
THE HOUSE BILL 194. |
| 00:22:56 | IF THEY TAKE THAT RIGHT AWAY
FROM THE PEOPLE, WE WILL EXTEND |
| 00:23:01 | THAT RIGHT.
EVEN SOME OF THE RULES ABOUT |
| 00:23:04 | PETITIONING ARE IN THE HOUSE
BILL 194. |
| 00:23:06 | THEY ARE CUTTING SHORT THE
CHANCE FOR A REFERENDUM. |
| 00:23:09 | THE SECRETARY OF STATE NOTIFY
SOMEONE THAT THEY HAVE FALLEN |
| 00:23:13 | SHORT OF A FEW SIGNATURES BY E-
MAIL. |
| 00:23:17 | NOW THE BILL SAYS IT HAS TO BE
BY CERTIFIED MAIL. |
| 00:23:21 | THEY HAVE EFFECTIVELY CUT THAT
DOWN BY SEVEN DAYS. |
| 00:23:25 | THE LEGISLATURE SHOULD BE
SAYING, WHY ARE THEY FILING SO |
| 00:23:30 | MANY REFERENDA?
MAYBE THEY SHOULD BE LOOKING TO |
| 00:23:33 | THE PEOPLE INSTEAD OF CUTTING
OFF THEIR RIGHTS TO SPEAK? |
| 00:23:35 | >> I WANT TO ASK YOU QUESTIONS
ABOUT YOU IN THIS PROCESS. |
| 00:23:40 | YOU ARE WORKING WITH THE JON
CASEY ADMINISTRATION ON THE |
| 00:23:45 | COLLATERAL'S ISSUE.
YOU ARE WORKING ON ELECTION -- |
| 00:23:49 | DONE KASICH ADMINISTRATION ON
THE COLLATERALS ISSUE. |
| 00:23:53 | YOU ARE WORKING ON ELECTION
REFORM REPEAL. |
| 00:23:57 | WHAT ONE GROUP TRIED TO ASK YOU
TO BACK OFF OF ONE OF THOSE? |
| 00:24:00 | >> WHEN THE GOVERNOR AND I TALK
ABOUT MY BEING INVOLVED IN THE |
| 00:24:06 | COLLATERAL SANCTIONS ISSUE, HE
TOLD ME THAT PEOPLE SAID, WHY DO |
| 00:24:16 | YOU WANT HER?
HE SAID, I DO NOT CARE. |
| 00:24:17 | HE AND I DON'T AGREE WITH EACH
OTHER ON EVERYTHING. |
| 00:24:21 | WE LOOK AT THE STATE AND WE SAY,
THERE IS A LOT THAT NEEDS TO BE |
| 00:24:27 | DONE.
LET'S FIGURE OUT WHERE WE CAN |
| 00:24:30 | WORK ON THINGS TOGETHER AND MOVE
FORWARD. |
| 00:24:31 | >> YOU RAN AGAINST LEE FISHER
FOR THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION |
| 00:24:37 | FOR U.S. SENATE.
>> HE RAN AGAINST ME BECAUSE I |
| 00:24:41 | ANNOUNCED FIRST.
>> HE RAN AGAINST -- YOU RAN |
| 00:24:46 | AGAINST HIM AS A LIBERAL, A
PROGRESSIVE. |
| 00:24:48 | A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO SUPPORTED
YOU AND I LIKE YOU. |
| 00:24:54 | HAVE YOU KILLED YOUR CHANCES FOR
RUNNING FOR ANYTHING ELSE? |
| 00:24:57 | >> I DO NOT REALLY CARE.
THERE IS 1/3 REPUBLICAN, WAS |
| 00:25:03 | SLASHED THE -- 1/3 DEMOCRAT AND
1/3 REPUBLICAN. |
| 00:25:12 | I DO NOT THINK THOSE ARE THE
KIND OF PEOPLE OHIO WANTS. |
| 00:25:21 | I AM NOT RUNNING FOR ANYTHING.
IF I CAN DO MY PART, I WILL DO |
| 00:25:25 | MY PART.
