How Ohio representives voted on the bailout

Sunday, October 5th, 2008 By James Nesbitt

After the stunning failure of the bailout bill in the U.S. House of Representatives last week, leaders resorted to their favorite and most successful means of getting legislation through the grinder: $110 billion dollars worth of pork.  Greased up and ready to go, the bill slid through on its second vote.  Below is a listing of how Ohio representatives voted on both versions of the bill.  Highlighted in red are the three representatives who changed their votes after pork was added to the bill.
