12 Days Until Ohio Referendum on Reproductive Rights!

[Ms. Toad]

2. One correction and a couple of additions.

The link you indicated was to print an absentee ballot is actually for an application. At this late date, voters should go to the county board of elections to ensure the absentee ballot actually reaches them. (It has to be mailed, after you request it - you can't just print it on your printer.)

Added notes: Voter ID rules have changed in Ohio. A photo ID is requred for voting in person at the polls either ahead of the election or on election day (unexpired driver's license, unexpired passport - or other US/State issued ID, US Military ID). In the past a photo ID was not needed - and in the past passports did not qualify as ID.

If you know/run into someone while canvassing who says they don't have a photo ID, they can still vote - but it is more of a hassle. It will have to be by paper (not in person) absentee ballot. If they request an absentee ballot and postmark it/drop it in the absentee ballot box at the board of elections they can vote using only the last 4 digits of their social security number.

I'll be at the polls on election day as an observer. We don't normally observe during odd years - but this year is different.
