Register to vote information in the mail
Ohio Secretary of State’s office is sending information about how to get registered to vote to 110,448 Ohioans who are eligible to vote but aren’t yet registered.
This initiative is in coordination with the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC), a non-profit organization who assists participating states in the effort to improve the accuracy of their voter rolls and increase access to voter registration. 30 states and Washington, D.C. are members of ERIC.
As a part of this partnership, ERIC and their participating states work to identify eligible citizens who were found on the motor vehicle database, but who are not registered to vote and have never received a similar mailing previously, to receive a postcard that informs them how to get themselves registered.
Based on the data provided by the BMV, 85,054 Ohioans who are 21 or under will receive the voter registration outreach postcard.
The deadline to register to vote in the November general election is Monday, Oct. 5. Ohioans can register or update their registration by visiting VoteOhio.gov.
