About
Ohio Ballot Protection

Ohio Ballot Protection was born in the summer of 2025, when a small group of women from Northeast Ohio—already active with Grass Roots Resistance (GRR)—started meeting to discuss how to safeguard democracy close to home.

What began as a few spirited conversations soon evolved into a focused, statewide effort to strengthen fair and transparent elections in Ohio.

Our mission

To restore voter confidence through education, advocacy, and community action.

We're here to help Ohio voters—current and future—understand how the rules of elections, district maps, and campaign finance directly affect their power and participation. Through hands-on events, partnerships, and accessible resources, we aim to turn awareness into action and cynicism into confidence.

Our vision

We believe democracy works best when every voter's voice is heard and every ballot truly counts. We're committed to protecting the integrity of Ohio's electoral process and ensuring that Ohioans have the tools, knowledge, and power to shape their own future.

We're building momentum by learning, connecting, and creating real impact—one step at a time.

What Matters

Ohioans continue to broadly oppose partisan gerrymandering. The most recent citizen-led reform effort, Issue 1 (2024), fell short after facing significant political interference.

We are determined to rebuild voter confidence, beginning with restoring integrity to the citizen ballot initiative process.
