More people voted early by absentee ballot in last fall’s presidential election than ever have before in Ohio.

More than a million of Ohio's nearly 8 million registered voters have taken steps to cast a ballot.

The first Presidential debate is tomorrow. But most polls show most Ohioans have already made up their minds when it comes to which candidate they’ll vote for.

Nearly a million Ohioans have returned absentee ballot request forms, asking for paper ballots from county boards of elections. And for those who’d like to cast a ballot early in person, voting starts tomorrow/today (Tuesday October 2nd) at locations specified by local boards of elections.
