“An Ohio House elections bill, lined up for a swift series of committee hearings since it was introduced last week, would make this year’s presidential election the first one since 2008 in which the state wouldn’t mail an unsolicited absentee ballot application to all registered voters,” the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
The bill “also would eliminate in-person early voting on the Saturday, Sunday and Monday before the election, something that’s been offered since 2015.”
“The proposal runs counter to a plan by Republican Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, who has sought to expand early voting for the November election, in part due to the coronavirus pandemic.”
