Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose announced today the launch of a new data dashboard designed to help citizens better analyze past election results and statewide voting trends.
U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and former Ohio Governor Bob Taft (R) got together to record a public service announcement on absentee voting and recruiting poll workers. Voters still have the option of in-person voting on or before election day. However, the former Secretaries of State urge those wanting to vote absentee to get their requests in this week.
Ohio’s Secretary of State has announced that the number of absentee ballot requests has more than doubled since the 2016 election.
Due to added precautions from the pandemic, the Allen County Board of Elections is asking for much needed poll workers. Each polling location requires four workers, two from each party. Anybody is encouraged to apply, as long as they’re 17 years old.
With just around two months left before the November election, applications for absentee ballots will soon be in the mail.
As Election Day draws closer, the Allen County Board of Elections recommends that you send in your absentee ballot soon.
