The readers of cleveland.com and The Plain Dealer have responded to a text message asking for clear positions on the issues that affect Ohioans' lives. The question was answered by readers across the political spectrum, with a broad consensus on taxes, education, energy, voting rights, healthcare, and whether state leaders will respect the will of voters. The second-largest cluster of responses focused on education, vouchers, daycare subsidies, income tax vs property tax debate, strategies for strengthening higher education, capital punishment, hemp beverage legalization, redistricting methods and more. The energy future was particularly popular with readers asking for answers on solar and wind power, nuclear plants, fracking under state parks, grid modernization, algae blooms in Lake Erie, water quality and whether local communities should control what gets built in their backyards.
