Ohio Ballot Uprising

Pass laws politicians refuse to

Change doesn’t trickle down. It rises from the ballot.

It’s Not a Campaign.
It’s a Movement.

We’re done waiting on politicians to do the right thing. Ohio Ballot Uprising is a group of citizens who write our own laws and organize to pass them at the ballot box. Members decide together which issues to take on, then work side by side to get them on the ballot and win.

“ I wasn’t sure what to expect, but OBU actually gets things done. It feels good to be part of something that’s moving. ”

“ This isn’t just talk. I’ve seen people from all walks of life show up, organize, and make a real plan. ”

“ I’ve never felt like politics had space for people like me. But this doesn’t feel like politics. It feels like a movement. ”

“ What hooked me was how practical it all was. No drama, just clear ways regular people can change things. ”

“ I met so many other Bobcats through Ohio Ballot Uprising. It’s connection and action. ”

“ Honestly? I joined because I was frustrated. I stayed because I saw people actually building together. ”

“ It’s not perfect, but it’s real. Everyone’s learning as we go, and we’re doing it together. ”

“ This group made me feel like I could make a difference. I don’t have a ton of time, but they helped me make it count. ”

“ It’s not about being loud. It’s about being strategic, and this crew gets that. ”

Our Path To
Win Together

Step 1: Pick the Fight

Members help shape what’s next. Every campaign starts with grassroots input.

Step 2: Draft the Law

We team up with legal experts and regular Ohioans to write a powerful amendment.

Step 3: Qualify the Ballot

Our team of volunteers collects the required signatures across the state.

Step 4: Mobilize Ohio Voters

We spread the word, raise awareness, and rally voters to the ballot box.

Step 5: Power Restored

The law passes because Ohioans chose it, not politicians or lobbyists.

WHAT IT TAKES TO
GET ON THE BALLOT

The Ohio Constitution gives voters the power to propose laws, constitutional amendments, and voter referendums. Few states allow all three. But getting on the ballot takes more than just a good idea. It takes strategy, coordination, and people power. Here’s what it takes to turn an idea into a statewide vote.
