A Victory In Battle, But The War Wages On...
We won a hard-earned victory yesterday in the war over eminent domain power. The Ohio Supreme Court unanimously found in favor of the property owners in the Norwood case. More details on this will follow - but in the interim, I got a request from my friends at the Castle Coalition. They need your help...
Friends:
I emailed earlier with a request to help turn the tide in a poll being conducted by the Cincinnati Enquirer about the landmark Ohio Supreme Court decision issued yesterday. We're starting to narrow the gap, but we need you to keep voting! We're still far from showing the massive outrage against the abuse of eminent domain we know exists across the country. Don't allow cities and developers to use this poll to justify land grabs in the future.
If you've voted, please vote again. If you haven't, please do so now.
Tell them you AGREE here:

We thank you all.
Sincerely,
Steven D. Anderson Castle Coalition Coordinator Institute for Justice

That's great - not to take credit for it, but it was just the opposite when I put the request up on the blog. I did put a call in to Steven and the folks over at IJ, and offered them some additional pieces of advice.
You still in town, CT? Wanna join some of us at 5 Guys for lunch?
