Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted today certified 406,514 registered voters names submitted by Voters First, above the 385,000-plus required to qualify for the general election. The group also met required threshold levels in 60 counties.
Barring a legal challenge -- the Ohio Republican Party and others have questioned whether Voters First' signature-gathering efforts were legal -- the next step in the process will involve the state ballot board finalizing language to be put before voters, as well as arguments for and against the issue.
