I get 6/43 = 13.95 % of US presidents from Ohio, Although Obama is often called the 44th president, there have only been 43 different presidents. I did not count Grant and B, Harrison as being from Ohio since they were not from Ohio when they were elected even though they were born there. I did count W.H. Harrison who was born in Virginia but was living in Ohio when he was elected. So,the six presidents "from" Ohio were W.H.Harrison, Hayes, Garfield, McKinley, Taft and Harding.
