Early voting began this week in Ohio.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"5\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/states\/ohio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">new law requires voters to prove their identity with photo identification<\/a> when casting a ballot in-person, whether it be on Election Day or while voting early and in-person.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Acceptable photo ID includes unexpired driver\u2019s licenses, state ID cards, an interim ID form issued by an Ohio BMV office, military ID, an Ohio National Guard card, a veterans ID card issued by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and U.S. passports.<\/p>\n<p>The law also made Ohio state ID cards free for Ohioans over the age of 17 who do not have a valid driver\u2019s license. Ohio BMV deputy registrar offices across the state are ready to begin issuing the cards, according to BMV spokesperson Lindsey Bohrer.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Ohio BMV, Ohioans seeking a standard ID card will need to show documents that prove the following:<\/p>\n<p>-Full legal name<br \/>\n-Dates of birth<br \/>\n-Legal presence in the U.S.<br \/>\n-Social Security numbers<br \/>\n-Ohio street addresses<br \/>\n-Legal name change (if applicable)<\/p>\n<p data-index=\"5\">The Ohio BMV has a <a href=\"https:\/\/bmvonline.dps.ohio.gov\/bmvonline\/Home\/documents\/standarddocuments\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">webpage<\/a>\u00a0to help Ohioans determine what documents they need to check off every requirement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"list b-margin-bottom-d40-m20\">\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"8\">Those who want to vote early, in-person at their local board of election office will need a state-recognized <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/states\/ohio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">photo ID<\/a> to cast a ballot.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"9\">The state-issued ID cards may be free, but hurdles like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/freehelp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">transportation and lost documents<\/a> may prevent Ohioans from being able to obtain them. Groups like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">VoteRiders<\/a> are forming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/volunteer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">community-based volunteer hubs<\/a> to assist people in the steps necessary to obtain necessary documents for the state IDs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"10\">Ohioans can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/freehelp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">call or text the VoteRiders helpline at 866.ID.2.VOTE<\/a> for information and assistance about getting the ID they need to vote. VoteRiders is also gearing up to hold <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ID clinics across the state<\/a> throughout April and will coordinate free rides to Ohio BMV offices so voters can get their IDs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"12\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/staff\/nicholas-ramos-esq\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nick Ramos<\/a>, interim Ohio voter ID coalition coordinator for VoteRiders, said multiple groups are impacted by the change in laws: people experiencing homelessness, domestic violence survivors, the elderly, LGBTQ+ people and more. But making the system more complex impacts all voters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"13\">For those who do not have an eligible photo ID card and who cannot access a free state ID card for whatever reason, Ohioans can still cast a ballot in this upcoming primary and special election as long as they vote absentee. Citizens can vote by mail using only the last four digits of their Social Security number.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"14\">The cards come at no cost to eligible Ohioans who request them. The law stipulates that the Ohio BMV will reimburse each deputy registrar for the deputy registrar\u2019s services in issuing the IDs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"15\">Bohrer said it\u2019s \u201cstill to be determined\u201d if the Ohio BMV will be reimbursed for that cost.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"16\">\u201cHouse Bill 33, the Fiscal Year 2024-25 operating budget bill, includes some language about possible reimbursement, but the budget is still under consideration by the legislature,\u201d she said in an email.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\" \/>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"20\"><b>Early voting: important dates<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"21\"><b>MARCH<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"22\">March 17: Military and overseas absentee voting began<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"23\"><b>APRIL<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"24\">April 3: Deadline to register to vote<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"25\">April 4: Absentee voting by mail began (ends May 1)<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"26\">April 4: Early in-person voting began<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"27\">April 25: Absentee ballot applications must be received by your board of elections by 8:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"28\"><b>EARLY IN-PERSON VOTING HOURS FOR APRIL (2023 PRIMARY\/SPECIAL ELECTION | MAY 2, 2023)<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"29\">April 4-7: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"30\">April 10-14: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"31\">April 17-21: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"32\">April 24: 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"33\">April 25: 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"34\">April 26-28: 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"35\">April 29: 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"36\">April 30: 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"37\"><b>MAY<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"38\">May 1: Mailed absentee ballots must be postmarked by this date<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"39\">May 2: Primary\/special election: Polls are open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text \" data-index=\"40\">May 2: Absentee ballots may be returned by mail or personally delivered to your county board of elections.
