Ohio Group Pushes for 2016 Ballots


COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A group hoping to put a marijuana legalization issue on Ohio’s ballot this fall says it’s pushing ahead despite the failure of a separate effort in November and won’t wait to see if state lawmakers act on medical marijuana.

Jacob Wagner, the co-founder of Ohioans to End Prohibition, said in an interview Friday that his organization remains focused on gathering the more than 305,000 valid signatures needed by July to get its “Cannabis Control Amendment” before voters in the presidential election year.

His comments come a day after Ohio House leaders joined two marijuana legalization advocates in announcing a task force to study medical marijuana.

Wagner said convening a task force “doesn’t mean the fight is over. It certainly doesn’t mean that they are going to pass anything good, anything substantial anytime soon.”
