Rye Miles #13621 Posted May 13, 2021 Posted May 13, 2021 Thread See new Tweets Conversation Governor Mike DeWine @GovMikeDeWine Two weeks from tonight on May 26th, we will announce a winner of a separate drawing for adults who have received at least their first dose of the vaccine. This announcement will occur each Wednesday for five weeks, and the winner each Wednesday will receive one million dollars.
Sedalia Dave Posted May 13, 2021 Posted May 13, 2021 That's going to create one heck of a market for fake vaccination cards.

Pat Riot Posted May 13, 2021 Posted May 13, 2021 Why? I am sure there are roads that this $5 million could be used for.
Sedalia Dave Posted May 13, 2021 Posted May 13, 2021 News on the radio this morning said there would be a minimum of 5 drawings every two weeks with the winner receiving 1 million dollars in each drawing.

Capt. R. Hugh Kidnme Posted May 13, 2021 Posted May 13, 2021 Appears your Governor is something of a twit.
Dutch Wheeler Posted May 13, 2021 Posted May 13, 2021 He is using money the Federal Government gave the State of Ohio to use towards fighting Covid-19. He is trying to incentivize everyone in Ohio to get vaccinated. I'm a Buckeye. I have had my two shots. I would gladly take the million.
Rye Miles #13621 Posted May 13, 2021 Author Posted May 13, 2021 He’s also giving kids under 17 a chance to win a full 4 year scholarship to any Ohio university! ( I’m not sure how many )
Cliff Hanger #3720LR Posted May 13, 2021 Posted May 13, 2021 Sounds like a discrimination law suit. Or misuse of federal funds to the state.

You’re not eligible and neither am I since we’ve already got our shots! I should have waited!

And I’m betting people who are not wanting to get vacced still won’t. Waste of time effort and money if you ask me.

No, we are still both eligible. He is pulling names from the list of registered voters in Ohio, and contacting them, and if you've been picked, and you've had your shots, you win! He was on WLW this afternoon and that's the way I understood it.

I would guess not many but some. Ohio is pretty much a Red State. It went for Trump in 2016 and 2020. We have a Republican governor and the house and senate are majority republican.
Dutch Wheeler Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Well, now they changed the Ohio's COVID vaccine lottery to an opt-in contest only. Now you have to register, see details HERE.
