Explained

Today

  • Ohio lets voters in a single precinct decide whether a specific business at a specific address may sell alcohol, or sell it on Sundays. These are called local option questions for a particular location.
  • Franklin County's certified list shows a Sunday-sales question for wine and mixed beverages at Dublin & Grandview Duchess, 1090 Dublin Road, Columbus 43215, on the ballot only in precinct Columbus 10-A.

If it passes

  • If a majority of precinct voters approve, the named business could sell wine and mixed beverages on Sundays at that address. Under state law, the Sunday wine and mixed-beverage question is tied to a D-6 liquor permit.
  • The vote applies only to that business at that location. It does not change Sunday sales rules for other stores or the rest of Columbus.

Who would notice

Registered voters in precinct Columbus 10-A, the business at 1090 Dublin Road, and its customers and neighbors. It does not change any tax.

How it got here

Under Ohio law, a permit holder or applicant (or its agent) at a particular location can file a petition asking for this precinct vote; a petition for only the Sunday-sales question needs signatures from 50 electors in the precinct and must be filed at least 90 days before the election. The Franklin County Board of Elections certified the question for the November 3, 2026 ballot.
