Hope for Ohio?

The Ohio Project is a grassroots effort of Ohio citizens to bring a proposed state constitutional amendment to Ohio's November 2011 ballot in order to preserve the freedom of Ohioans to individually choose their health care and health insurance. Click here to learn more...

Minimum Goal Passed, Next Goal: 400,000

June 22, 2011.  On June 20th, the petition containing signature number 385,245 for the Health Care Freedom Amendment was turned in for cataloging at our central location.  (For a full explanation of how many signatures are needed in order to make up for invalid signatures and to have a comfortable safety margin to ensure placement in the November 8, 2011 general election, see our FAQ) Today, two days later, we are just about 10,000 signatures away from passing over 400,000 signatures collected by volunteers.  We believe that this is unprecedented in the history of Ohio.
We've also had two counties cross significant milestones milestones so far this week.
Paulding county is the ninth county to have acquired signatures from one out of every four active voters in the county.  Over 1,800 signatures have come from Paulding county voters.
Preble county is the 31st county to have surpassed the 15% mark and brought home over 2,200 signatures.
Below is a current table of the counties that are about 250 signatures from their next milestone and in very close proximity to their next checkmark on the Regional Map.  Notice that a number of counties have arrived within striking distance of their next milestone.
Several counties have been updated on this list, so make sure to check to see if your county is one of them.
