With Ohio’s nearly century-old ballot initiative process at risk of being permanently declared unconstitutional, Yost moved immediately to dismiss the appeal he had filed in the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.Yost had repeatedly rejected proposed summary language for the measure as not being a fair and accurate representation of what the measure would do.
that he had placed a “severe burden” on organizers when it came to communicating with voters and meeting the filing deadline. They also rejected Yost’s argument that the case belonged to the Ohio Supreme Court.“Dave Yost has demonstrated that he can’t be trusted with that amount of power,” said Mark Brown, an attorney for the organizers. “It’s a lot of power to give any state official, especially an elected official. The Supreme Court made the right decision.”Yost issued a statement saying he planned to work with the Republican-supermajority state Legislature to craft legislation “to reform the ballot initiative summary process to protect the integrity of Ohio’s elections and freedom of speech.”

The Transport for London website showed at least three subway lines were suspended and there were severe delays and partial suspensions on at least six other lines during the afternoon rush. By 11 p.m., service had mostly recovered with only one line experiencing severe delays.
The London Fire Brigade cited a brief fault on the National Grid’s transmission network., said the private plane departed Westchester County Airport in White Plains, New York, at around 11:30 a.m. heading north to Columbia County Airport in Hudson.
Piloted by Michael Groff, the plane had left the Boston suburbs early Saturday morning, picking up Karenna Groff and Santoro in White Plains before making the short trip to the Catskills to celebrate Karenna Goff’s 25th birthday.But at about 11:57 a.m., Michael Groff informed air traffic control that he’d missed the initial approach to the runway at Columbia County Airport, according to the report. The controller then gave him new instructions for the landing, which Groff acknowledged a little after 12 p.m.
About a minute later, though, the controller warned Groff the plane was flying at a low altitude, the report states. The pilot never responded, and, despite multiple warnings, air traffic control received no further radio transmissions from the plane until radar contact was eventually lost.The Mitsubishi MU-2B-40 crashed in snow covered terrain roughly 10 miles (16 kilometers) south of the airport.
