Democrats may win all three statewide votes they're pushing come Election Day, according to a poll by the Columbus Dispatch.
Attorney general candidate Richard Cordray (D-Pleasant Twp.) is beating Mike Crites (R-Powell) by 17 points, 57 to 40 percent. Independent Robert Owens has 3 percent support.
Ballot issue 5, which seeks to revoke payday lending regulations limiting high interest rates for short-term loans, looks to be defeated by 69 percent of voters. (A "yes" vote would keep the low interest rate.)
Issue 5 has widespread, bipartisan support.
Ballot issue 6, which seeks to amend the state constitution to allow construction of a single casino in southwest Ohio, looks to fail as well: 64 percent don't want to amend the constitution to allow casino construction.
