A limited number of tickets to the Governor's 2013 State of the State address next Tuesday in Lima will be distributed to the public through an internet lottery.

Governor Kasich’s decision to deliver the State of the State outside the capital is again rooted in his desire to make state government more accessible to Ohioans and shine a light on communities across Ohio making contributions to the state’s success.

Names will be collected until 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, February 14th, and individuals selected for tickets by random lottery will be notified via e-mail by noon on Friday, February 15th.

Interested individuals can register for the ticket lottery on line:
