To vote in the upcoming election, an individual must be registered to vote in the State of Ohio 30 days prior to the election. The voter must be a qualified, registered voter to cast an absentee ballot or visit their assigned precinct and polling location on Election Day. The voter must bring proper identification to the polls in order to vote a regular ballot on Election Day (see documents required).

Voters must bring identification to the polls in order to vote a regular ballot on Election Day. NOTE: The polling location notice mailed to registered voters or identification cards issued by board of elections cannot be used as proof of identification. Proper Identification: - A current and valid photo identification (such as Ohio driver license card, state ID card, government ID). Photo identification must show name and current address (except that Ohio driver license or State ID card does not need to show current address if the address in the poll book is current) or - A military identification that shows the voter's name (does not need to show address) or - A copy of a current (within the last 12 months) utility bill (including cell phone bill), bank statement, paycheck, government check, or other government document (including from a public college or university) that shows the voter's name and current address. NOTE: Voters who do not provide one of the above documents will still be able to vote by providing the last four digits of the voter's social security number and by casting a provisional ballot. Voters who do not have any of the above forms of identification, including a social security number, will still be able to vote by signing an affirmation swearing to the voter's identity under penalty of election falsification and by casting a provisional ballot. If identification is not provided at the time the provisional ballot is cast, the provisional voter may provide a valid form of identification in person at the Board of Elections during the 7 days following Election Day.

- Available by phone Monday through Friday from 8:00am to 4:30pm. Available online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. - Polls open from 6:30am to 7:30pm on Election Day.
