We are doing a good job getting petitions signed across the state. There are some trouble spots but those issues I believe will be resolved. A few last things we need to do before this is over.
1 - validate signatures
2 - deliver the petitions
1 - Everyone who circulates a petition please validate they signed in the correct district and are not a democrat using our voter query tool on www.ohio4ronpaul.com. We may need some people to work with Doug in Reynoldsburg to do some validation over the few days too.
2 - WE WILL NEED DEDICATED DRIVERS to deliver petitions. You can get paid for this, I think 45 cents per mile. Here is the proposed plan
- on Jan 1 we need people in each district to pick up any petitions that have not been mailed to Doug in Reynoldsburg.
- On Jan 2 the driver needs to pick up any petitions at Doug's house in Reynoldsburg (columbus area) for their district. This is probably also a good time to do some validation.
- No later than the morning of Jan 3 all the petitions collected should be filed with the LOCAL county board of elections in your district. This gives us 24 hrs to correct some mistakes because the true deadline is Jan 4. The locations of the local CBE will be posted soon.
We should probably have some standby drivers too.
We need people to commit to doing this now. This is it, this is the final stretch, we need to do this and do it well, then we will have Dr. Paul on the ballot. Please contact me if you can help or if you can get someone who is willing to help. We need to cover all districts.
thanks, Joe

bump
Talked to my friend Parke in OH and he confirmed that there is no sence of urgency. That it is "under control" so to speak. Which seems to confirm jb4ronpaul's post. We are counting on you guys! Keep up the good work.
We have about 800 of the needed 3000 state delegate signatures and 350 of the needed 3000 state alternate delegate signatures. District 18 has about 30 (including the 12 I collected today) of the needed 150. Several other districts have less then 50 of the needed 150.
Things do not look "under control" from out here in the hinterlands of Ohio.

3000 and 150 are the goals we have set so we have wiggle room. 1000/50 are the minimums. The more signatures we have the better insurance we have.
if everyone keeps working like we have been we should be very close to meeting those goals. we have a few trouble spots that are being addressed. keep working on those signatures though. we can't have too many signatures. we have a timeline that allows us to weed out the bad ones before submitting.
Directly from http://www.ohio4ronpaul.com -- Below is a copy/paste of two minutes ago. Note the 3000 in "At-large goal". This is where I'm getting my figures from.

don't be sick about it. 18 is a little weak, but I have spoken to 2 people who are working on getting more people out the next couple of days in 18. the big problem with 18 is we don't have the alternate petition even done yet. However I think we will get that done and bring paid people in for that one since it will be last minute. Please continue to collect as many signatures as you can, we can't have too many. It will give us greater insurance. best not to take risks.
