OHIO, USA — Voting is underway in Ohio and hundreds of thousands of ballots have already been cast at early vote sites across the state.
Early voting is a chance to vote in person before Election Day on Nov. 5. If you are a voter who would like to avoid crowds on Election Day or prefer to vote ahead of time, each county has a designated location to vote early.
Unlike voting on Election Day, the early vote centers serve multiple cities, towns and precincts all at one location. Otherwise, the requirements to vote are the same whether you vote early or on Election Day.
