Score: Ohio Citizens: 1 - Secretary of State: 0

From The Cincinnati Tea Party.

That's right - we won!

Secretary of State, Jennifer Brunner, the Ballot Board and Attorney General Richard Cordray just lost to the Ohio citizens.

What did they lose?

In Ohio Liberty Council v. Brunner, they attempted to prevent the Ohio citizens from determining their own future on the recently passed healthcare bill mandate, which states everyone must purchase government approved health insurance or be fined, with the possibility of jail time.

The Ohio Supreme Court ruled that our proposed amendment to the Ohio Constitution is a single issue (which Brunner disputed), and we are free to move forward with the signature gathering process to get this amendment on the ballot.

Score: Freedom loving Ohioans 1 - Brunner and freedom inhibiting officials 0

I'd love to tell you that's all it takes, but unfortunately part of their strategy was effective. They delayed our signature gathering time period and we still need over 400,000 valid signatures from over 44 Ohio counties in just a couple months.

This will be difficult. It is possible, but your help is needed.

If you are interested in helping with this vital project through volunteering or donation - we will need all the help we can get. These donations will be used exclusively for initial costs of launching this effort (printing, cards, banners, flyers, etc). Click Here!

God help us all as we defend Ohioan's freedom to choose.
