A |     Ohio residents this week began voting on a constitutional amendment whose fate will ultimately determine abortion access in the state.Voters are considering two ballot initiatives; ballots began being accepted on Wednesday and go through Election Day on Nov. 7.The two measures are: Issue 1, the amendment that if approved would add abortion rights to the state constitution; and Issue 2, which would legalize recreational marijuana.The proposed abortion amendment would establish an "individual right to one's own reproductive medical treatment including but not limited to abortion" and then creates legal protections for those individuals, among other guarantees like for contraception and fertility treatment.The marijuana measure, if passed, would make Ohio the 24th state to legalize cannabis and would allow adults 21 years and older to buy and possess up to 2.5 ounces of flower and 15 grams of extract.In August, Ohio voters resoundingly rejected a contentious, Republican-backed ballot measure that would have raised the threshold for future changes to the state constitution -- an effort that would have specifically made it more difficult for the abortion amendment to pass.When the U.S. Supreme Court struck down its previous Roe v. Wade ruling, in 2022, the justices returned the question of abortion access to individual states. Since then, while some states have largely ceased abortion access, others have taken up ballot measures that put the question before voters. In those cases -- in both red and blue states so far -- voters have rejected the potential for abortion restrictions and bans or elected to expand access.On Sept. 27, the Ohio Supreme Court started hearing arguments about the state's six-week abortion ban, which was previously put on hold by a lower court.The success or failure of the abortion ballot measure could render that case moot, if state voters add abortion access to their constitution.Both sides have built up mobilization efforts over the past few weeks -- knocking on doors, canvassing and hosting rallies across the state."Whether you're pro-life or pro-choice, Issue 1 just goes too far," Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, a Republican, said at a recent event at the Ohio GOP's headquarters.Ohio Democrats claimed last week to have been inching toward 100,000 doors knocked and more than 100,000 calls made in the time since their win in the August special election."We're not leaving anything behind as we work to protect women's rights to choose and prevent Ohio's extreme abortion ban from taking effect," Ohio Democratic Chairwoman Elizabeth Walters said during a recent press briefing.There's also been significant financial investment in the race. According to numbers from AdImpact released last week, $12.3 million had been spent or reserved in advertising around the abortion ballot measure, with anti-amendment groups outspending amendment supporters by about $1.6 million.

The two sides make their arguments

Both Ohioans United for Reproductive Rights, a coalition of groups supporting abortion rights, and allied Ohio Democrats have sounded the alarm on what they claim to be foul play by opponents of the abortion amendment.Last month, the state Supreme Court allowed the Republican-controlled Ohio Ballot Board -- which is overseen by Secretary of State Frank LaRose, who is also running for the U.S. Senate -- to use amendment language that includes the phrase "unborn child."Democrats on the board had asked for measure's language to remain what was on the petition that voters originally signed, which did not include that term.Amendment supporters have argued it was rewritten to confuse voters and is misleading about what the measure would actually do."They're running scared because they know their extreme abortion ban is wildly unpopular, and Ohio voters support a woman's right to make medical decisions for themselves without interference from politicians," Walters, with the state Democrats, said during a recent press call.Abortion opponents have also attempted to broaden the stakes of the proposal, arguing that it "goes far beyond" codifying the protections of Roe v. Wade to potentially affect parents' rights and "threaten the freedom of conscience of Ohio's healthcare professionals and preclude ... the enactment and enforcement of commonsense, protective laws," as Protect Women Ohio, one of the leading organizations fighting against the amendment, wrote in a memo."The Abortion Amendment victimizes rather than protects and empowers women and girls," they continued.LaRose, a leading voice against the measure, said in a statement to ABC News that "as a father and someone who's always stood up to protect life, I'll be working to defeat this radical measure."。    昨天下午，西湖白堤，被风吹坏的雨伞装满一辆环卫车。台风登陆前后，杭州风雨交加。据杭州市气象台统计，8月8日8点至9日18 点全市面雨量78毫米，主城区面雨量101毫米，最大富阳126毫米，萧山120毫米、滨江113毫米、西湖110毫米、余杭106毫米、上城96毫米、临安96毫米、桐庐94毫米、钱塘88毫米、拱墅84毫米、临平71毫米、建德47毫米、淳安36毫米，1511个站点累计降水超过50毫米（占比73.3%）、731个站点累计降水超过100毫米（占比35.4%），2个站点累计降水超过250毫米，最大累计雨量临安天目山镇东关村321.8毫米，最大小时雨强萧山区进化镇祝家村54.1毫米。昨天下午，记者在西湖边看到，不少游客还在风雨中游玩。14点，断桥和白堤上，景区保安一边巡逻劝导，一边用扩音喇叭提醒游客，远离湖边、树下和堤岸周边，建议尽快返程。白堤上风大雨急，游客们只能顶风冒雨前行，一些人手中的雨伞被风吹得变形。记者看到，一辆环卫三轮车上，放着一堆从垃圾箱和路边清理收集来的雨伞，装满整整一车，几乎都是被风吹坏后丢弃的。

B | 环卫工人说，光白堤这段路，一天就能清理上百把。16点，西湖景区对白堤、苏堤区域实施临时管控。断桥入口设置了围栏，禁止游客进入，景区民警也劝离还在白堤上的游客。

C | 台风来势凶猛，西湖景区各部门闻风而动，随时出击，应对各种突发险情。

D | 昨天15点半，白堤一株柳树的一段枝干被风吹断，景区园林工人随即赶到，迅速处置完毕。16点多，记者途经西湖边北山街时，看到新新饭店公交站附近，一棵10多米高的悬铃木发生倒伏，拦在马路中间，对交通造成影响。交警部门随即对北山街实施临时交通管控，禁止车辆和行人通行。相关部门和园林工人迅速赶到现场，分段砍伐、逐节清理，并用吊车将粗壮树干移至路边，留出通道，北山街随后恢复畅通。西湖景区提醒游客，台风影响期间，避免前往山地易涝路段，勿在古树、广告牌、临水平台逗留，合理安排行程，尽量减少外出，注意自身安全防护。
