Monday is the deadline to register to vote in Ohio's fall election. Ohioans also have until Monday to update their voter information.
The election on Nov. 3 includes three statewide ballot initiatives. One would legalize marijuana for medical reasons and recreational use, while another seeks to prevent monopolies from being inserted into the state constitution. A separate measure would overhaul how state legislative districts are drawn. Ohio's election chief says there also are more than 1,700 local issues on the ballot. Those include a number of levies for police and fire services as well as school funding. Ohioans can begin voting absentee by mail or in person on Tuesday.
