Voting Day: Ohio to Decide on Controversial Anti-Union Legislation 
-------------------------------------------------------------------



It is voting day in many parts of the country. In Ohio, early polling
suggests voters may be on track to defeat legislation that would ratify
Republican Gov. John Kasich’s controversial limits to the collective
bargaining rights of state employees. The issue was placed on the ballot
after a group created after Kasich’s law was passed this spring
gathered 1.3 million signatures to oppose the measure.
