Poll Shows Voters Behind Wage Hike, Not Gambling

A newspaper poll finds Ohio voters support raising the minimum wage and
curbing smoking in public places but not expanding gambling in the state.
The Plain Dealer poll shows 73% of respondents support raising the state's
minimum wage to $6.85. Issue 2 on the November ballot is a constitutional
amendment to raise the wage from its current $5.15. The poll shows
respondents aren't behind Issue 3, which would put slot machines at nine
locations in Ohio and give some of the proceeds to college scholarships.
Both smoking issues are supported by the respondents with the more
restrictive ban winning by a greater margin. But if both ballot proposals
pass, the less restrictive measure that still allows smoking in most bars
will prevail.
