THE ELIMINATION OF THE
OHIO POLITICAL PARTY FUND

Amended Substitute H.B. 166 (State Operating Budget) was passed by the legislature and signed into law on July 18, 2019 by Governor Mike DeWine (R). Until then, you had an opportunity to help your state and local county parties at no cost to you by checking the Ohio Political Party Fund box on your Ohio state tax return! As of January 1, 2020, the check off on your Ohio state tax return will no longer be available as an option.

Checking “Yes” indicated to the Ohio State Treasurer that you wanted money from the Ohio Political Parties Fund to do three things:

  1. Pay for the necessary annual audits of the State & County Political Parties;
  2. Give half of the remaining funds to the Ohio State Parties; and
  3. Divide the other half to each County Party in accordance with the ratio that the number of checkoffs in each county bears to the total number of checkoffs.

These funds are restricted-use funds, mainly used to conduct voter registration and outreach programs and to operate and maintain offices. They could not be used to further the election or defeat of any particular candidate or to influence directly the outcome of any candidate or issue election.

Over 300,000 Ohio taxpayers designated one dollar – $1.00 – of their state taxes to strengthen the two-party system. Making this donation did not increase the total amount of tax you owed nor reduced the refund you received.

If you wish to donate, please consider donating directly to your local Democratic county. Or make a contribution to the Ohio Democratic County Chairs Association! Please see the above address for direct contributions or to link through ActBlue for ODCCA!
