Split vote?  8-2 strikes Retiring Guy as lopsided.

Ottawa County commissioners Tuesday approved a resolution “to promote life” in an 8-2 vote. 

Commissioners passed the largely symbolic resolution after board Chair Joe Moss and Vice Chair Sylvia Rhodea on April 18 released a draft that spoke about the “unspeakable harm to women” and the pre-born following the now-overturned Roe v. Wade decision. 

Both Moss and Rhodea are members of the ultra-conservative political platform known as Ottawa Impact. The group gained a majority on the board in January 2023.
