Ohio Fall Ballot Cleared: Voters to Decide if State Opts Out of ObamaCare

COLUMBUS, Ohio (The Blaze/AP) — Voters will get the chance to decide whether Ohio can opt out of the national health care overhaul after the state’s top election official said Tuesday that opponents of the federal law have enough signatures to put a constitutional amendment on the Nov. 8 ballot.

Secretary of State Jon Husted determined that supporters of the amendment, which would prohibit Ohio from participating in the federal Affordable Care Act, had gathered 427,000 valid signatures. They had submitted more than 546,000 and needed roughly 358,000 of them validated to make it on to the ballot.

Hallelujah!  I'm already anticipating it passing and the court striking it down.

If we DON'T disappear him, our private healthcare system will be dead before the end of his second term.
