Vote no on 2.

If issue 2 passes, then it takes effect immediately, and issue 3 will not be enacted.

(Technically the ohio constitution says that if two conflicting ballot measures pass the one with more votes takes effect, but issue 2 takes effect immediately, issue 3 takes effect in 30 days)

Im sure issue 3 lawyers would argue their case if they got more votes, but I dont think they would win.

The exact text is as follows

. . .Prohibit from taking effect any proposed constitutional amendment appearing on the November 3, 2015 General Election ballot that creates a monopoly, oligopoly, or cartel for the sale, distribution, or other use of any federal Schedule I controlled substance. (Basically block issue 3)

If you want marajuana now vote no on 2 and yes on 3 is the way to vote.
