Ohio Bans Grace Periods for Mail Ballots

Ohio has made it Harder to Vote-by-Mail. Senate Bill 293, which was recently 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, any Ballots 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 this is How He Votes some times, 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.

Mail-in-Balloting is Safe and Secure, and now if you bring it to the Post Office, they will Time-Stamp it, before sending it to the Sorting Site.

It's a Non-Partisan way for Eligible Voters to make their Voices Heard in our Elections. And now it's Harder for them to Participate in Elections in Ohio, whether they're a Military Member voting from Overseas, using the New Internet Voting system, someone who is Immunocompromised, in a Nursing Home, or any other Reason for Voting-by-Mail. It also means the State must Mail Voters early to make sure their Vote gets backon time

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. I want to know, where Non-Citizens that did Vote, where they Deported, as the Law states.

In Ohio, this New Law will Result in Thousands of Ballots being Thrown Out. We know this because Thousands-of-Bballots were Accepted in the Ggrace Period in Previous Selections, some of them making the Difference in Local Elections, like in Warren County, where several Races came down to Single-Digit Margins.

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 in particular, this is a Partisan Voter Suppression Exercise meant to Codify MAGA's Power in Perpetuity.
