Why doesn't Taft do everyone a favor and resign?

WooooHoooo!

Good riddance governor Taft!

Too bad your incompetence and corruption cast a dark shadow on the other Republicans running this year. Blackwell would have been a great governor.

Ohio does something right.

Screw you, Bob Taft. Pretty bad when your veto gets overridden by your own party.

21 to 12 isn't a 2/3 vote. What is required for an override in Ohio?

In Ohio it only takes three-fifths to override (for most things -- apparently there are some situations that require two-thirds, but it looks like this wasn't one of them).

three-fifths according to Ohio Constitution:

Good Job Ohio.

Buh-bye RINO Bob Taft. Anyone GOP who would veto a firearms bill like this - is a RINO in my book.
