So it'll be a proportional primary now and Ron will get on the ballot. Even better.

coming off a big win in Washington State over the weekend, we'll be looking for good stuff from the Buckeye State on March 6th.

Ohio is the heart of it all. Cbus is the heart of the heart. The OSU is the heart of the heart of the heart.

He needed a certain number of signatures to get on the ballot before the deadline, but missed it. The deadline has now been extended to the end of December with this legislation.

Hmm, did other candidates make it on the ballot previously and RP missed the boat?

Do overs can sometimes be good, I guess! Although June would have been better(if he had been on the ballot)

This is surreal. Ron missed getting on the Ohio ballot? How can this be? How can the campaign write off a whole state? Especially one as important as Ohio. I must be missing something here. I'm asleep and dreaming, right? Why wasn't this huge news. Seriously, I must be missing something....

I asked multiple places about how we were doing in my district and never heard boo. I e-mailed the guy, posted on the Ohio for Ron Paul page and zip, zero, nadda. Kinda aggravating that Ohio is evidently being so poorly run.

edit: Now I've actually called the guy's number (Joe Bozzi) and left a message.

Here is a relevant page, for fellow Ohioans: http://ohioforronpaul.com/?p=401
and here is the facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/RP2012OH

Newt missed it too. I guess they were banking on the legislature changing the deadline. They need to be on the ballot.

Thank you. But this does not reduce my utterly surreal take on this. I must still be dreaming.

I was thinking this exact same thing. We should have a huge RP following in Cincinnati now! :)

I wish I knew some people in Ohio that not only know what is going on here and what needs to be done, but who will actually help the tremendous number of people who have questions who are getting no answers. The facebook page is next to useless.


Grrrrrr......feeling VERY frustrated right now.

Has Ron missed any other states?
