Alex Jones, the Director of the Erie County Board of Elections (BOE), wants to help you avoid any hiccups when casting your vote this year. Erie County is anticipating the largest voter turn-out ever, so DON’T PROCRASTINATE. Vote early! Voting begins on Oct. 8th, but know the rules. • Voter registration deadline is Oct. 7, 2024. • Voting by mail. You can submit an application to vote by mail anytime. Ballots will be mailed out on Oct. 8, 2024. Notify the BOE, by Oct. 15, 2024, if you did not receive your mail-in ballot. • When mailing your ballot back in to the BOE, take it to the counter of your post office. Have the envelope post marked by hand. (This is a suggestion only.) • Photo ID is required to vote. A utility bill reflecting your name and address is no longer considered ID. Today, the emphasis is on, you are who you say you are. The address on file at the BOE must be consistent with your ID. • Have you moved or will you move between now and election day? Oct. 7, 2024 is the last day to update your address with the BOE. If you move after Oct. 7, 2024 or fail to notify the BOE of your new address, you will undergo a provisional ballot process. This is a lot of avoidable work for the poll workers. It delays the in-person voting process for everyone standing in line. Help the poll workers avoid the use of the provisional ballot process. • You can start voting early as of Oct. 8th. • You cannot vote the Monday before election day . Don’t be afraid to contact Erie County BOE at 2900 Columbus Ave., Room 101, Sandusky, OH 44870 or 419-627-7601 or erie@OhioSoS.gov Your questions are welcomed!
