Ballot Board
Decides Clean Energy Amendment is Single Issue
COLUMBUS – The Ohio Ballot Board, chaired by Secretary of State Jon
Husted, today certified that a proposed constitutional amendment
concerning clean energy consists of one issue.
Petitioners will now need to collect 385,247 signatures, which is equal
to 10 percent of the total vote cast for governor in the most recent
gubernatorial election. As part of the total number of signatures
needed to place the measure on the ballot, petitioners must also
collect signatures from at least 44 of Ohio’s 88 counties, and within
each of those counties, collect enough signatures equal to five percent
of the total vote cast for governor in the most recent gubernatorial
election.
Secretary Husted serves as chair of the Ballot Board and oversees the
board’s proceedings. Other members of the Ballot Board include: State
Senator Bill Coley; State Senator Nina Turner; Mark Griffin; and
William N. Morgan. Ballot Board meetings are open to the public.
