There is a lot on the line Nov. 3 as Crawford County voters are being asked to determine outcomes for 12 local issues. Add in the three statewide issues and voters have plenty of homework to do before casting a ballot.

Six townships and the Galion school district have renewal levies on the ballot while three townships – Cranberry, Holmes and Sandusky – are going to their residents asking for additional funds.

The Village of Chatfield is asking for a 5.0-mill levy for current expenses while all Crawford County voters, minus those covered by the Galion City Health Department, are going to determine the fate of a 0.85-mill levy for the county’s Health District.

Statewide, voters will determine the fate of a state constitutional amendment determining how legislative districts are to be drawn, an anti-monopoly measure and the hotly contested marijuana legalization issue.
