COVID-19 and Patient Voting
Here is how COVID-19 is affecting Patient Voting in this state:
​
Ohio is a no-excuse absentee voting state, so any registered voter in Ohio may vote by absentee ballot and cast a vote without being physically present at a polling station. More information on this process and the application for an absentee ballot can be found here. The deadline to request an absentee ballot is three days before the election in which you want to vote, but voters can submit their application any time. If mailed, absentee ballots must be postmarked by the day before the election in order to be counted. You can also return your absentee ballot in-person to your county board of elections before the close of the polls at 7:30 PM on Election Day.
