Ohio Made it Harder to Vote by Mail

Ohio just made it Harder to Vote-by-Mail. Senate Bill 293, which was Signed into Law, Repeals Ohio’s Practice of Counting Mail Ballots that are Postmarked Prior to Election Day, but that Arrive up to Four Days after Polls Close. Now, anyBballots Delayed in the Mail that arrive after Election Day Won't Count.

This follows Executive Orders from Trump (R), Who is against Mail-in-Voting despite Voting that way Himself, and has Called for Ending these so-called Grace Periods for Mail Ballots Everywhere. Ohio’s New Law follows His Lead, Threatening Thousands of Votes in the Process.

But, Mail-in-Ballots is Safe and Secure, but has the Problem of the Post Office Not Postmaring them. It's a Nonpartisan way for Eligible Voters to make their Voices Heard in Elections. And now it's Harder for them to Participate in Elections in Ohio, whether they're a Military Member Voting from Overseas by Mail, Someone who is immuno-Compromised, in a Nursing Home, or Livinf Overseas, Voting-b-Mmail.

Defending Vote-by-Mail is a Crucial Part of Protecting our Fundamental Right to Vote.

The use of Mail-in-Voting has become very Common across the Country, and Study after Study has shown that Fraud in Mail-Ballot Voting is Rare. There are also several -Safeguards in Place Nationwide to Protect against Fraud, including Signature Requirements and Barcodes to Track Envelopes sent by Officials. States have spent Tens-of-Millions of Taxpayer Dollars Investigating Voter Fraud since 2020's "Big Lie" and Found Virtually Nothing.

In Ohio, this New Law will Result in Thousands-of-Ballots being Thrown-Out. There is No Good-Faith Reason to End the Vote-by-Mail Grace Period. Just like the Other Trump Attacks on Our Elections in General and Mail-in-Vvoting inPparticular,- this is a Partisan Voter Suppression Exercise meant to codify MAGA's Power in Perpetuity.

USPS wrote. “If a customer in any community, no matter where it is located, wants to ensure that their ballot or other mailpiece receives a postmark reflecting the date it is mailed, the customer should visit a Postal Service retail location and request a manual postmark at the counter in person.”
