DFB is very upset that I think his worldview will essentially disappear in the coming decades and is not at all upset that I think the GOP has a 40-50% chance of winning 2024-POTUS, which I *think* is what OP is asking about. I’ll reply to DMs when not on my phone; sorry that this sort of stuff routinely takes me months as I really only write true effort-posts when the mood strikes me.
Although as I noted I was wondering how you voted on Question 1, because you're pro-choice but voting for it seemed like a partisan thing to do.
I’m camping in British Columbia until August 16, so I was out-of-state the day of the referendum and didn’t vote. I would’ve voted No, but I didn’t feel very motivated to turn out given that a No victory was totally inevitable and, as you noted, I have a soft spot for conservative procedural trickery. (Although my strong experience is that on the issues I care most about referendums are overwhelmingly successful for my points of view, and if anything I would support efforts in Ohio to make them easier to trigger and easier to pass, like in CA.) Assuming that the inevitable abortion referendum makes this year’s November ballot (which will hopefully be the case, it would be very unfortunate if that were put off until next year), I’ll be voting for the pro-choice option then.
