Ohio Won’t Require Government Photo-ID for Voters For November 2006 Election

On November 1, the Ohio Secretary of State signed a consent order, settling the lawsuit The Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless v Blackwell, sou. dist., C2-06-896. Absentee ballots received by mail that contain the voter’s date of birth, address and signature will be counted. At the polls, a wide range of ID will be accepted, not just government photo-ID. The order does not apply to elections that occur in 2007 and future years.
