Ohio Medical Marijuana Advocates Submit Second Petition - Associated Content from Yahoo! - associatedcontent.com: "Ohioans who want to see medical marijuana legalized filed a second petition on Wednesday to put a medical marijuana law to a statewide vote in the November 2012 elections. Known as the Ohio Medical Cannabis Amendment (OMCA), this initiative would allow certified patients with diseases such as cancer, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, etc. to use medical marijuana to ease their symptoms.

The OMCA Political Action Committee gathered 2,365 signatures, well more than the 1,000 valid signatures required to certify a petition. Next, the ballot board must validate the signatures and Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine must review and approve the language and summary of the amendment. "
