OPINION IN SUPPORT OF REVERSAL
DOUGHERTY, JUSTICE
I view the current controversy as different from the procedural question raised on motion for reconsideration and decided by this Court on September 16, 2016. At this juncture, the issue is whether res judicata applies, and as this Court has not answered the substantive question originally presented — whether the ballot language at issue is unconstitutionally misleading — I do not believe a decision on the merits has been rendered by the Court.
Justices Todd and Wecht join this opinion.
