The summit, held about one week before Labor Day, will feature outstanding speakers and experts on Saturday, Aug. 25 from 9 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Speakers include:

"We are working to ensure voter integrity in Ohio, a very important swing state in the 2012 Presidential race," said Engelbrecht. "In the last 12 elections, the state has accurately picked the winning presidential candidate. We need to make sure that every vote is counted.  We're excited to have some fascinating speakers who will provide us with their thoughts about the challenges related to voter fraud in Ohio."

WHAT: Participants who attend and media who cover the Ohio State Summit will gain access to the latest research findings, legislative updates and training methods that can help interested citizens and inspire activists across the country to strengthen the election process.

Discussions will range from instances of voter fraud within the state to the recent lawsuit filed by Obama for America with the Democratic National Committee and the Ohio Democratic Party over early voting in Ohio, which could be problematic for military voters.
