Days after Ohio voters passed Issue 1 and codified abortion rights into Ohio's constitution, Republicans are not accepting the election results.

In a new, unhinged press release issued by the Ohio House Republican Committee, GOP members rant that "foreign billionaires" impacted the election results and call the results tainted by so-called "foreign interference." It is unclear what they are referring to.

Ohio voters overwhelmingly voted 'Yes' on Issue 1 by a margin of 56.6% to 43.4%.

The press release further argues that the results of the election do not invalidate a 6-week abortion ban previously passed by the Ohio Legislature and that "no amendment can overturn the God given rights with which we were born."

It’s really funny when they whine about outside money. I didn’t see the GOP up in arms as Citizens United passed, I don’t see them upset when they SuperPACs give money to their campaigns so it seems they only care when it affects them, big fucking shocker there….

They would say:

"Now, if your states blue

And you don't know where to go to

Why don't you go where fascist sits

Putin on the Ritz"
