health care overhaul

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Voters will get the chance to decide whether Ohio
will opt out of the national health care overhaul after the state's top
election official said Tuesday that opponents of the federal Affordable
Care Act have enough signatures to put a constitutional amendment on the
Nov. 8 ballot.
Secretary of State Jon Husted determined that supporters of an amendment
that would prohibit Ohio from participating in the program 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.
