In OHIO , If your home has been foreclosed, you must re-register in order to be able to vote in the Presidential Election. If you have not re-registered you have lost your vote! The good news: You can re-register and vote this week and it is an easy one-step process.
Your County Board of Elections Office (address provided below) will ask for your name and Social Security number or your Drivers License with your former address. Tell the registrars that you have moved and provide the new address where you are currently living. You do not need proof of the new address. They will re-register you on the spot.
This week only, Sept 30th - Oct. 6th at the same time that you are re-registering at your County Board of Elections Office, you are able cast your Election vote by filing an Absentee Ballot.
Just validated by the Ohio Supreme Court, this one-stop approach is an effort to reach out to those whose homes have been foreclosed and who are at risk of being disenfranchised at the polls. The Court recognized that many former home owners might face challenges and delays at the polls, and therefore have agreed to the so-called Golden Week (September 30th through October 6th) in which voters are encouraged to re-register and vote on the same day.
For the convenience of your readers, we have attached Your County Board of Election Office location.
