Description
In a pre-Election Day episode of “Beyond the Podium,” James Pilcher examined Ohio’s governor’s race, Hamilton County commissioner candidates, Cincinnati Public Schools’ Issue 4 levy and two Kentucky ballot issues. Democratic gubernatorial nominee Dr. Amy Acton discussed a controversial ad involving her birth mother, defended her decision not to debate Republican Vivek Ramaswamy and outlined priorities including school funding, property tax relief and affordability. Commissioner candidates Meeka Owens and Jonathan Pearson discussed property taxes and their approaches to county issues, including housing, energy costs, public spending and the Metropolitan Sewer District. On Issue 4, CPS leaders said the proposed five-year, 7-mill levy would generate more than $66 million annually and help address the district’s financial challenges, while opponents Jay Kincaid and Ozzy Davis argued families cannot afford the tax increase and questioned claims that rejection could lead to state takeover. The program also examined Kentucky election procedures and a proposed constitutional amendment that would limit a governor’s ability to issue pardons near an election.
